Yes, they do... I see it every day on the street while driving home.
I don't think car commuters necessarily make for a good example of adult behavior - in fact, the opposite tends to be true.
No, I meant other drivers. I'm not a nervous (cussing) driver, but most I've seen are. You should hear the stuff that comes out of these people's mouths, my god! I had no idea grown ups could act that way.
Once this guy bumped me from the back, I got out, no real damage, just a scratch, plus I don't really care, a car is a means to an end for me, takes me from point A to point B. So, I didn't even offer to exchange insurance info (it was his fault, so in the end, he doesn't get compensated at all). But this guy... he started cursing at his luck, and then just raised his voice at me and asked "you couldn't stop 20cm down, could you π"... and I just gave him a confused look and got in my car. I mean, really? Over a fender bender? It wasn't even a real scratch, it was just paint transfer.
It seems that we are in agreement, no? That a lot of car commuters behave like children?
Oh, I missed the car part in car commuters π, sorry π.
