Simply put, I think it is fear that is causing aggressive driving.
Fear is one hell of a motivator.
Maybe even more of a motivator than sex.
We are told over and over again by the TV, magazines, newspapers
how afraid we should be.
And people start to believe it.
If they don't wear XYZ companies underarm deodorant they will
never get to have sex with the girl down the street.
If you don't buy a Lexus SUV your kids will die in a car crash.
On Star is the only thing separating you from death in an auto accident.
So people go out and buy all of this stuff to placate the fears that have
been instilled in them by the companies that produce this stuff.
They buy all this stuff on credit and the real fear sets in when the credit card bill comes in at the end of the month.
So they have to go buy more stuff to make themselves feel safer, better.
And dam sure don't get in between them and the stuff they need, or you
will get run over.
Just my $0.02
