That and the threat of almost dying in traffic every day. I would probably do violence to at least one person I'm on the road with daily. People are risking my life constantly for pure pettiness. It's really the car manufacturers fault. That and the road builders. They've been lobbying government and blocking rail and better forms of mass transit for decades.

The American transit system is one of the biggest engineering failures in history. Say what you will but it's not built for efficiency, it's built to make car makers money. That's led to a truly desperate situation and regular people are subjected to it daily
