It also annoys me when somebody is moving too slow in the aisle at the grocery store, but I've literally never once seen someone flip out and yell at or physically push past someone for moving too slow in that context.

We've had 100 years to examine the effects of driving on people's brains and it's...deranging, clearly.

It's so common we even have a name for it: road rage. What it is about driving that induces rage in so many people is beyond me.

The phenomenon has been around as long as there have been automobiles.
