Do you obey the law of the coupe?

It's a very old unwritten rule when it comes to cars. Regardless of relationship to the driver/car owner, if the car is a coupe or any other type of vehicle that has a relatively small/cramped back seat in relation to the front seat, you give the bigger people shotgun (front passenger seat) priority. I've known a lot of people who don't follow it and it bugs me. The worst was my sister's husband back when he had his mustang. Bear in mind I am 5'10" and at the time was about 300 lbs. She was all of 5'2" and 120 or so. If it were me I would put her in the back even if she was my girlfriend and let the big guy go up front. Not him, though. It sucked. =/

I'm 6'2" so the back seat of a coupe is a place I don't go.0
