Of course no one wants to hit and injure other people. But every one want to get ahead of traffic, and then ignore the fact that more dangerous maneuver = more chance of hitting someone. Saying "no driver I know wants to hit someone and injure them" is just playing with semantics.

Yes, there are other motivations, but I think the desire to avoid hurting someone is a powerful one.

> But every one want to get ahead of traffic

They should get a bike! :)
