On a daily basis I find myself growing ever more furious with other drivers. I think the cause of my rage might stem from the following behaviors exhibited by other drivers:
1. running of stop signs
2. running of red lights
3. failure to yield
4. lane change without noticing/caring that I'm there already
5. near misses from behind (moved into the near-miss category when i drive off the road into the ditch to avoid being struck)
I'm not sure if it's because I just didn't notice, or because it's becoming more of a problem, but it seems like #1 and #2 have grown to be especially egregious in the past few years around here. People just don't seem to care that they are in control of a 4000 pound weapon that can KILL OTHER PEOPLE in a collision.
