14 Times Queen Elizabeth Got Behind the Wheel

The British royals—they're just like us. While the Queen certainly has plenty of staff to drive her wherever she pleases, Elizabeth II has been known to get behind the wheel herself. Whether she's attending a horse show or driving a World War II ambulance, the Queen certainly enjoys spending time in the driver's seat. Like any mother, she's even chauffeured her children, Prince Charles and Princess Anne, as well as her husband, Prince Philip. The monarch has also created her own driving uniform of sorts, as she's rarely spotted in her Land Rover without a printed silk headscarf or colorful hat, paired with the occasional large sunglasses.
