Contain his reaction in this stressful situation.

Stay calm and keep quiet so you don’t distract or startle his brother. Make sure your seatbelt is on and, if you must speak, do so calmly and briefly (for example: “Do you want me to call someone?”). Yelling, giving driving instructions, or gripping the dash can make things worse.
