This time of year it's a case of driving to work in the dark and driving home the same, so I play a game of counting the amount of cars with only one headlight working (1 dim bulb counts as well) to relieve the boredom
This morning 12 and this evening 9
What do you do to stop getting bored when driving long distances?
Just to add this is not in my golf! That does not get boring
Keep it as clean as you can😉

When its light enough, my 2 boys and I play - BMW, Audi or Mini.
1 point for whoever sees them first.
Lately we have changed it to a more random game with less cars -
mk1 - wins the game outright
Supercar ie Ferrari - wins the game outright
M3 - 10 points
Any Porsche - 10 points
Sporty cars - 5 points ( VXR, RS, GTI, WRX, FR, CUPRA, COOPER S, ST )
Great fun and I am usually ahead until the wee man spots a Ferrari

The one headlight out is a good game but I can understand why as with most modern cars is near impossible to replace the bulb without taking 1/2 the front of the car off, the worst seem to be French cars and in France you have to carry spare bulbs and I don't see how you could change the light bulb at the side of the road.
I also count people with fog lights on even when it's not foggy and even give them a good long flash when it's dark and wet as their blinding me so I return the favour!

I'm sure it's to baffle owners so they take it to the main dealer!

Not a game, but just a comment. Is anyone else now dazzled like me by some of the REAR lights on some ,eg Mercedes, newer cars with an array of LEDs. I mean when you're in a queue behind them and they've got their brake lights on as well. I have to look away they're so bright.

The other one I like to play is see how many people are doing their hair, writing, drinking or surfing the net on smart phones.
That and counting how many people have sat navs on when traveling many many miles on motorways. Why? Just turn it off ffs!
