Road Rage

[LTDHO]

Did anyone else watch TT and ACA last night? They both did Road Rage.
TT was a little better than ACA. TT had that guy who teaches advanced driving, both shows had NRMA on it.

What I disagree with is they blame drivers who don't 'plan their drive' and 'rush'. This would have to big the biggest load od cr@p I have ever heard!

It's simple. Motorists are not patient and courteous. Licences are to easy to get and the licence holder believes they now can drive as they please because of the card in their wallet.

If the police actually 'policed' the road and not sit on the side of the road on their ar$e with a speed radar, then we may have safe roads!

Road Rage I have my own personal theory on it.
I think a lot of it comes back to political correctness crap.
Be that at work when there used to be an ill tempered boss that could rant and rave and chew you out, it still happens but not to the extent it used, why because it's against equal opportunity laws and a person now gets "councilled" when they are in trouble.
Parents....they too have been hit with this, You can't hit your kids or get angry at them, they these days get "time Outs"
Teachers same thing...they cannot control a class with threat of cane or strap anymore.

The world has gone mad. Now put all this togther with basic phsycology and you will realise the world has no outlet for anger like it used to. Hence in the annonimity of traffic or your car etc, people take thier frustrations out on other drivers because its unlikley they will ever see that person again.

Anyway Thats my theory, let me know what you think
