I stop at GREEN traffic lights! :( | ADHD Information

I am totally driving and talking and I will allways stop at green traffic lights...it is so embarrassing...the passenger (who ever happens to be in the car) will go "hey, its green! What are you doing?"  I just cringe...because I know that it is because I wasn't paying attention...

Does anyone else do this?

I remember one time doing that. I have a hard time driving and keeping a conversation. I will be in the middle of a conversation something will distract me and I will just stop talking and concentrate on the road.

My husband does this ALL THE TIME!  But, he isn't ADHD!  I on the other hand am like the one person on here who posted about driving and not remembering the last two miles or so.  I will totally stop to think, WOW, did I just drive all the way here?  I don't remember it.  Weird huh?

Yup... I've caught myself doing that a couple of times.

I least I don't GO on a red.

Oh, my gosh, I do that all the time myself.  Then people are honking horns behind me thinking what is this nutty woman doing.  It is so embarrassing. 

Yes I do this all the time too - I have never heard anyone else talk about it and it is Embarrassing and as sonya says I think I only do it when someone else is in the car - or maybe that is the only time I notice because they can tell me LOL.

But yeah - made my day hearing others are as strange as me.  LOL

I only do this when there is somebody else in the car.  I HATE driving anyone else around, even someone as close as my husband...  I will also get confused at an intersections with like, 2 way stop sign, for the other people..  If i am talking and running my mouth, I will get confused, I will stop when I don't have to; and my husband will be like...."YOU DON'T HAVE THE STOP SIGN! THE OTHER PEOPLE DO..."  And then I will get nervous, and go, and almost get hit or something; and then I will get extremely embarrassed.

I pay more attention to the road when I am driving alone.
