The royals love to drive themselves. The Queen is a mechanic. Check out the movie The Queen for verification. Diana was a sensational driver who would still be alive today if she had taken the wheel rather than that drunk frog. Anne is also a good driver despite her many traffic violations. I don’t know about Charles.

Let’s put our royalty (the prez, the senate and the house) back in the driver’s seat. Get rid of the limos!

The Prince of Wales likes his cars, but he drives them in a way that makes me think he regrets the fact that they wouldn't let him fly fighter jets as often as he wanted to when he was in the service. At least, that's what it felt like when I was in a car he was driving. He may have been trying to make a point as I had just asked him when the last time he'd driven was.

The Duke of Edinburgh used to own a London taxi cab and drive it around the city because it was nicely anonymous. I assume he doesn't do that anymore, but I've heard he even used to pick up tourists sometimes and then confuse them by refusing to charge a fare (he wasn't allowed to as he wasn't a real taxi driver).

I remember she really liked driving her Land Rover.
