Yup. Ironically I think it’s that feeling of pseudoanonymity that does it, which seems backed up by how people often behave online. It allows someone’s true colors to come out, whatever they may be.
Nah for me it’s the fact that people act like cars aren’t death machines. Like I get all the anti car arguments and agree with the vast majority of them except for one big one.
Get out of the way. You know cars are dangerous so get out of the way. Even if it’s inconvenient. You will lose that fight every single time so why even start it in the first place?
People are scared of plane crashes (especially with Boeing involved - hey-oh!), but they forget: BY FAR the most dangerous portion of every flight is the drive to and from the airport (assuming those are involved).
cars bring out the worst in people.

The people who really need to acknowledge that cars can be death machines are the people driving them.
I mean agreed but again everyone else needs to treat them as such as well.
You can’t call it a death machine and then act like it’s just a slight inconvenience. That’s how you die.
