While changing the location of a show, a character, usually female, is pushed for time and changes her clothes in the back seat of a moving car. You can definitely expect to see a shapely leg waving around behind the driver as tights are pulled on. This may indicate that this character doesn't care about being seen nude or changing in public due to Ambiguous Innocence, she's a Shameless Fanservice Girl, or it's simply that she was forced to do this because she's in a hurry and wouldn't normally change so publicly. Speaking of the driver, he will usually be male. The situation is often Played for Laughs as the changing character will generally caution the driver to watch the road instead of his passenger. Said driver will struggle to do so. May overlap with Watching the Reflection Undress if the driver uses the rearview mirror to sneak a peek. |

27 Dresses: The opening sees Jane hiring a cab for the whole night to shuttle between the two weddings she's bridesmaiding for on the same night. She tells the cabbie she'll dock his fare for every time he looks, and at the end of the night, she hands him less money than expected and says, "You know what you did." He nods as if that's fair. | |

Chuck: In "Versus the Wookiee", Sarah needs to change out of her mission outfit and into the uniform for her cover job at the Weinerlicious, and as she's already late, she does so in the back seat as Chuck drives her there. Chuck's gaze is drawn by the view in the rearview mirror until Casey covers it. | |

Happy Halloween, Scooby-Doo!: Daphne, as they flee in Elvira's car, suggests that she and Elvira swap outfits so that if the monsters go after Elvira for her celebrity status, they'll target Daphne instead. Elvira, oddly, buys it. In truth, it was actually Daphne pulling a non-lethal variant on Kill and Replace, and she'd done it before with Phyllis Diller. | |

X-Men: First Class: Played With. Agent Moira McTaggart needs to infiltrate the Hellfire Club, but the CIA didn't really have any plans for how to get her inside. Noticing a bunch of scantily-clad women marching in a line inside as part of the entertainment, Moira quickly strips down and dashes out of the backseat of the car to fall in line, allowing her to get inside without anyone questioning it. | |

Dirty Dancing: After doing a dance performance, Johnny and Baby are seen driving back home, with her changing out of her fancy dress in the backseat of the car as he drives. This is because she is keeping her activities a secret from her family and doesn't want to be seen in such an exotic outfit by anyone who knows her. Johnny takes the opportunity to sneak a peek through the rear-view mirror as she changes. | |

Bend It Like Beckham: After Jess's father agrees to let her slip out of her sister's wedding party to play in her football team's playoff game, she has to change out of her sari and into her uniform in the backseat of Tony's car. We aren't shown anything titillating, and Tony, who came out to her as gay earlier in the film, naturally doesn't pay any attention. | |

Why Didn't They Ask Evans? (2022 TV adaptation): Frankie leaves the hospital where Bobby is recovering and gets changed in the back of a car driven by her family's long-suffering chauffeur. Unfortunately for Bobby, the clothes she changed out of were "borrowed" from him. As Frankie gets changed, she calmly admonishes the chauffeur for consulting the rearview more often than necessary. Gender-Inverted Trope later. After Bobby leaves the hospital still in his scrubs, Frankie gives him a lift so the two can properly discuss matters. He takes the opportunity to change back into his clothes in the backseat, whilst Frankie (now in the front) gives him more than a casual glance in the rear-view mirror. This does not escape the attention of the same chauffeur, with her calmly but sheepishly telling him to "do as I say, not as I do." |

Smokey and the Bandit: In the third film, the hitchhiker Snowman picks up decides to change in the backseat, but questions him if he's going to perv on her. He swears he won't, but it is obvious that he does. This is different from the first movie, when the future Frog does change out of her wedding dress in the Trans Am but does it while in the front passenger seat. | |

Magnum Force has a variation where a prostitute takes a taxi and proceeds to stuff the money she's just earned in her bra and panties. Realising the cab driver is watching her, she pretends to flash him. Unfortunately the fanservice scene does a Mood Whiplash when her pimp turns up and murders her for trying to hide the money from him. | |

Played purely for comedy in Johnny Dangerously. Johnny, Lil, and an accomplice are escaping by car after busting Johnny out of prison, and the two men make a point of changing outfits and the car's color from the backseat (Lil had layered shelf paper over it for just that purpose), but every time they do, they somehow get immediately spotted and another APB goes out with a description matching their new disguise. They eventually wind up dressed as nuns and driving a getaway car covered in "duckies and bunnies", to the police dispatcher's incredulousness. | |
