Gosh no. Some people love driving, on any roads anywhere; some choose to drive short distances on smaller roads because bigger roads and longer distances give them horrible anxiety.All driving is not the same.Nobody should be pressured into driving they are not comfortable with, it’s one of the riskiest activities we commonly do, and nobody should ever be pushed beyond what they feel happy about. Friend is bullying you here to undertake a risky activity purely for their benefit.

The ONE possibility here that would kind of put you in a bad light is IF there is a history of your friend repeatedly going out of their way for you to help you out in situations. And this is the single ask they’ve had in all that time, because they’re in a bind, and you are shooting them down.
