Warning - GenX get-off-my-lawn follows:
I've been driving for 40 years. Drivers today are way less considerate than when I started driving.
It's not speed- people have always driven fast, and teenage boys have always driven recklessly. It's a complete lack of courtesy. For example, you can be 3/4 of the way out of a perpendicular parking space and there's still an excellent chance that someone turning into the aisle will cut you off. It's common that if you're right-turning onto a street, and there is a red light on the street with traffic stopped nearly to where you are, that through traffic will ignore you and block your intersection rather than "give up" a car length to let you turn in. People in the right lane on interstates don't bother to change to the center lane when approaching an on-ramp. People in stop-and-go traffic won't let traffic merge in from on-ramps.
I don't know what caused this or what to do about it.
