Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy driving. At least in principle, if not always in practice. It's just that the conditions for driving enjoyment have narrowed over the years. Fundamentally, it is because the number of cars on the road has increased exponentially while our infrastructure has followed a weak linear trajectory. Once you are comfortable giving up control and letting someone else drive, there are photographic benefits of sitting in the passenger seat. Once in a while you may even get a decent shot out the window of the moving car.
