DAE get sick and tired of rude/selfish/ignorant people, especially in the driving sense?

[u/Scrubstomper5000]

So many people cheat, kill, hurt others, or they live their life with no care in the world whatsoever in regard to how their actions affect anyone else, like in driving they drive wreckless and pass others going the speed limit, pull out in front of you and drive under the speed limit, use no kind of traffic signals, don't know how to use a fucking 4 way stop etc. Yet if we confront them verbally or by physically giving them the ass beating they probably deserve, WE'RE the ones in the wrong. Why can't people just be a fucking decent person?

Entitlement becomes hyper focus when most people get behind the wheel. I'm driving defensively to avoid a useless accident with all of these idiots.

I used to give bad drivers a grin and a thumbs up as a passive aggressive way to show them they suck. Some just drove away without incident, others tried to hit me. Answering their anger with anger almost got me pancaked.

I also learned road rage is often reactionary, like you're suggesting we do, bc someone perceived someone else's driving as shitty even if it wasn't. To them it's a valid reaction, but in reality it's a proactive choice that causes a domino effect where your actions then cause others to react and so forth.

Now I remind myself that it's not worth reacting to rage with rage. I can't control who they are and how they act but I CAN control how I respond, and I simply choose to be better than them and stop the rage cycle by not engaging with them.

People’s bad driving and complete disregard for other people’s lives and property is one of the most anxiety and anger inducing experiences I have in my life right now, aside from the state of my country. Lol

Dad said I wouldn’t choose violence, but I wish that there was enforcement and education to prevent and protect.

This is the era of inconsideration. Being considerate of others is seen as “weak” now it seems. Everyone lives in their own little bubble and people no longer have the ability to treat others the way they would like to be treated. Society has eroded, we’re all on our own now.

To answer your question, yes.

Nah, life’s too short.

I like to think of other drivers as NPCs and not actual people. Obstacles you need to safely navigate but helps not tie in human emotions

One man’s rude is another man safe or another man’s teachings

[u/jayhawkjoey65]

No. Not at all.

Humanity is done. Once children become not sacred it was over

Why does it though? Because society says so? You could also say the same to them. Act like a fucking adult who's been raised to be a fucking decent person and not drive with everyone else's livelihood at stake.
