Where is lawbreaking not just visible, but designed to be seen? Where is antisocial behaviour worn as a badge of honour? Where is pleasure gained directly from causing distress? And where is reckless endangerment often ignored by the police or treated with the mildest of punishments? The answer is on the roads.

    My mom drives like this, don’t be sexist about a non gendered issue. Ah just realized it’s from the opinion article title.

      yes, I’m sure there are a couple of dozen examples to the contrary… nationwide.

      overwhelmingly the aggressive drivers and motorheads whose entire personality is VROOM VROOM are male.

      You know this, I know this, you see it every day, but sure, throw your mom under the bus… Cute

          good for you. you know that’s a vanishingly small counter example to the overwhelmingly male crowd represented by the motorheads.

          ah, the ‘but aktchually’ crowd

          edit: lol but aktchually look at all the angry downvotes what a bucket o chuds

            My wife is also the crazy driver tho when she’s on her women cycle and something triggers her anxiety(almost anything). Even my father in law complemented my driving and told her to learn from me.
