I always refuse to overload my car when people urge me to do it for several reasons...
1. More stress on the drive train/suspension then the vehicle is designed to handle.
2. This is the biggest reason.. You get into an accident and 3 people die because they are in an overloaded car and your going to have trouble living with yourself for the rest of your life. You will also most likely face legal scrutiny at teh very least with the possibility of man slaughter charges due to negligence. so yea just refuse the overload.. 4 people can split cab fare easy peasy its worth it.

AND, the lack of seatbelts for all the passengers.

I'd be concerned that people had their feet and other body parts on my interior where they didn't belong... don't need to be messing up my car to drive a bunch of walking schleps around...

I think I crammed four passengers in my CRX back in the day. Man..that was back in....'93 I think!

I won't do it in my Z tho...although, I might be persuaded if it was two super hot AND petit girls. It would also help if they were both wearing really short summer dresses!

And if it was only for a 5-minute drive, why didn't these guys just walk...
