Is it an isolated event or does it have any correlation with anything else?

    For me its when I see a driver who is driving unexpectedly. Like speeding in areas with kids. Or driving at high speeds anywhere.

    roadways are build for a certain speed so we can anticipate oncoming traffic. Like lights are programmed to allow a block of traffic to go then a break so cars turning can complete the turn between the break. if some asshole fucks it up by hammering the gas they will end up in between the blocks making it harder for all the cars to complete their turn since they now have to wait.

    Someone said ‘reading intention’ which is a big part too. I can’t read intention of drivers who are selfishly doing what they want.

    it’s the realization that traffic could be better and safer if it wasn’t for certain drivers

      In congested cities if you don’t enter the intersection when its not completely clear then you’ll have to wait ~40 minutes for a chance to go across. Waymo’s riders have that as one of the biggest frustrations. Then theres a gridlock behind them.

      There’s no winning with cars.
