I've seen flossing in public. That was gross. I've seen someone picking their scalp in public and examine it. I wanted to barf. Everyday on the way to work I saw the same woman sit in the same spot on the bus and put on her makeup. I dunno, maybe it doesn't bother some but it didn't look right to me.
To answer your question, I don't think you're being overly sensitive but since he was in his own vehicle and not really 'in your face', I'd try to overlook it--or just not look at all. It's when it's right in front of your face that makes me cringe.

I see people picking their noses in public all the time. It's grossss. Especially when they just flick it somewhere and don't care. *barf* ANd I'm talking grown men and women here!
Brushing your teeth while driving? I don't know about gross, but It is certainly is a talent in the car. I can barely turn the knob on the radio while driving, lol, jk
I wouldn't want to see it, but then again they are in their car, so, what can you do...
I'd rather that than driving past a guy parked in his truck and his arm is moving in a suspicious way while he's looking right at you. That was an icky moment if there ever was one.
Okay, this is probably bad, but I floss in my car after lunch and before I go back into the building. I always carry floss with me in my purse AND in my car, just in case someone steals my purse. After the floss job, I chew gum. I have this thing down to a science.
Twinkle - I have a toothbrush, travel sized toothpaste, floss, gum, and mints in my car, in my purse, AND in my desk drawer at my office. I brush my teeth after every meal, and I floss my teeth pretty much every time I snack - maybe extreme, but its just one of those things.
I do, though, always make sure to get up and close my office door before whipping out the floss!! If I'm in my car (NOT driving) I don't mind if people see me - I'd rather they see me flossing my teeth than those people who will sit and dig around in their mouth with their finger trying to get something unstuck - GROSS!!!!
People strangely think that being in their car makes them invisible
You mean I'm not???
When I was working, when I pulled into my parking space in a parking garage, I don't think anybody could see me flossing. They'd really have to be craning their necks and straining to see what I was doing in there. Oh - and I have tinted windows in my car too. So, I'm ... well, sort of invisible - a little bit.
