When a person is driving while listening to music, and rhythmically thumping on the steering wheel, as if playing the drums to the beat of the music. Most often observed at stop lights; also the person's lips are normally viewed attempting to sing or mouth the words to the song. On rare occasions, you may actually hear the person's voice and/or hear the 'thumps' of them drumming the steering wheel. On very rare occasions the person will close their eyes and raise their neck up to emphasis a high note, thus sitting at the stop light, even after the light turns green.
OMG, Robert, look at that girl sitting at the stop light singing and pounding away on her steering wheel; She's definately Drum Driving today! If she doesn't open her eyes soon, she's going to sit there through the green light!
When someone is driving a car while intoxicated (often on both beer and pot), but to such a degree that their demeanor and brain function are comparable to the infamous mike drum when he goes out drinking.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
