Check what time it is when you leave.
Check the temperature.
Compare the difference in temperature when you drive in shade compared to sunshine. (Gets even more interesting when it's a foggy morning.)
Check what time you are due to arrive at destination. (All these done by carefully peering around driver at dashboard and satnav/ GPS)
Work out how many stops you will need.
Work out what time you will actually arrive at destination.
Check speed.
Check time again.
Check temperature again.
Notice that you can make a Ricola sweet last exactly 20 minutes.
Check driver is still following correct route.
Check time.
When the sun shines on your face, watch yourself in the back of the drivers helmet.
Pull funny faces at yourself.
Move head around and watch funny distortion of your own reflection.
Check how much time has passed.
Check how far until next turn off.
Work out how long until next stop.
Work out how many breakfast bars are left and how many you can eat at next stop.
When body starts aching, be on constant look out for place to stop for a break.
After break repeat all of the above.
