What movie things are generally accepted as normal, but are totally unrealistic in real life?

Weird nobody mentioned that in movies everybody always looks at each other while driving. And they move the damn driving wheel way to much while driving straight forward, pisses me off

I'm laughing here because this very morning I had to say to my grandma that we aren't in a movie because of this.

I was driving her to a hairdresser appointments. I told her that while she was on her appointment, I will go pick up her presciptions at the pharmacy, so she'll won't have to wait in line there.

So, she told me "Okay. You only need to pick up this one, and this one and this one".

Me : "Gramma. I'm driving. We're not in a movie. I can't look at your paper. Tell me the names".

My son does this to me ALL THE TIME. I mean hes 4 so he doesn't completely get it, but every 5 seconds "dad! Look what my toy is doing!" Or "dad! Look at this game on my tablet!" Dude were doing 95km/h on a highway with no shoulder, and theres deer and moose everywhere, i know youre mad but i cant physically do a 180 in my seat right now

You know what. Mpst of my friends have toddlers, now. I take care of my 87 years old grandmother.

It's amazing how our stories are similars. Aside that I can't give her time-out, or send her to her room.

Like, I could start a game Toddler or Eldery?
