I agree 100%
I have seen many more women drive aggressively than male drivers. I think they do it because they are trying to 'out male' male drivers to show that they are just as good.
I also blame two factors...
seat belts
air bags
Most people now think they will walk away from any accident so they do not care how they drive.
If you look at how 'safety' is selling cars these days, you would think that you could survive a head-on with a Sherman tank and not get hurt. no consequences=no control
By Aggressive driving here I mean the normal 'Mario Andretti" lane changes, cutting people off, etc. I do not mean shooting each other with Mac-10's
That is a whole 'nother story...
