All the evidence you need that people are getting crazier and more stupid can be gleaned from the way people are driving nowadays. It has gotten progressively worse year after year with no end in sight of people speeding, tailgating, running red lights...etc.etc....all very dangerous and all worth only of brain-dead zombies that want to jettison their humanity to get 2 seconds ahead.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who has noticed that same trend lately (last 10 years or so).
People who are angry vent their rage on the roads.
I’m personally sick of those self-centered idiots who refuse common courtesy and literally run good drivers off the road.
The body count associated with this behavior will only go up -as will road rage incidents.
Happened to me just this morning. I was in the right lane of a 3-lane road, going the speed limit (45). All of a sudden some idiot came up on me, tailgating. She then flashed her lights at me and honked the horn. I had the cruise control set properly, so I continued on my way. We came to an intersection, and flipping me the bird, she screeched into her right turn.
I thought to myself "must be late getting to divorce court".
