My parents would swat my ass whenever I needed it. Their reasons were theirs but I always knew why I had gotten my ass whooped.
When I was 17-18 years old and learning how to drive, my father would backhand me from the passenger seat if I forgot to use my turn signal or didn't turn my head and check my blind spot. If I didn't check my mirrors every 3-5 seconds, he'd reach right up and slap me again. To this day, I unconsciously jerk my head, as if to duck another backhand if I go longer than 10 seconds without checking my mirrors. I even feel a slap coming every time I drive onto the freeway, so I turn my head all the way when I merge onto interstate highways. I've never had a moving violation nor have I ever been involved in a collision when I was driving.
