I go along these lines. People are frustrated because they have so little power in most aspects of their lives. When they get behind the wheel they are the top dog and abuse the power.
I wish that everyone would drive like they want everyone else to get home safe. The idea that "we have to make this work for everyone" is a dying concept. It is called civil responsibility. It is the flip side of the civil rights coin.
