It must suck for the people who have to drive while the eclipse is in progress and their reason for driving is unrelated to the eclipse. Such as driving to work or coming home from work. Those people might accidentally catch a glimpse of the sun with unprotected eyes if the sun happened to enter their field of view while driving. I'm not sure if this hypothetical scenario would run the risk of causing eye damage to someone's eyes if the exposure to the sun was very brief. Eclipse sunglasses can't be worn while driving for eye protection against possibly getting an accidental glimpse of the sun.

The eclipse wont vaporize your eyes if you just get a glimpse of it when driving.

Continuous exposure to your eyes would likely cause more damage than the sun usually would, but if youre not intentionally staring it down its not dangerous.
