> And a whole host of other bad driving behavior that basically boils down to "the driver doesn't seem to know what they want to do". Honestly, my observation having driven in multiple different countries (but predominantly in the US and across different states) is that Americans drive without forethought. One of the things you learn in drivers education in most countries, and are also taught during on-track instruction if you ever go to an HPDE, is to look farther ahead so you can be focusing on what your next action is going to be. The natural inclination of drivers in America is to look at whats /directly/ in front of their vehicle and think no further ahead. This type of (semi-literal) short-sightedness is a direct cause of so many of the bad (and sometimes downright stupid) behaviors I see on roads in the US. And then you have legitimate bad actors who are selfish and behave in purely anti-social ways. These folks should frankly be identified and just straight out banned from driving. Driving enforcement is lax in the US, as well, mostly used for revenue generation via fines rather than license removal. There should be a LOT less licensed drivers in the US, but we have no real alternative transportation pathways in most locales, so our society is not willing to actually take away a license from someone despite considerable evidence that they can't drive safely. Even multiple DUIs will not get a license permanently removed in the US.
