    You do know that people who snore can't help it so what exactly do you think talking to them will do? It's a subconscious issue and to keep waking them up does nothing but stop it for a few seconds and irritate the person.

    Nose plugs... for him. If that doesn't work... a rag in the mouth will (in addition to the nose plugs).

    This is not a recommendation or advice to follow... it is humor. Following this advice could lead to death (yours if you wake him up while doing it) or trauma (again, yours if you wake him up while doing it). The law enforcement community also frowns on the smothering of a co-driver (no sense of humor there, eh?).

    Sadly, knowing the mental competence of some of the drivers out here, a disclaimer is necessary. I'm not saying you are all dumb but,... if the shoe fits some of you are wearing it (and it's on backwards).

    I was kind of wondering the same thing. What purpose would it serve to tell them they are snoring. Are they going to will themselves to stop? Most people who snore know they do anyway. I would go with the earplugs if it bothered you that much.
