Yes, I do believe so. However, my road rage lasts all year. I mean for real, how hard is it to use a turn signal, or dim you lights for oncoming traffic?

In ancient Jewish tradition Satan is simply an angel doing the work that God assigned to Satan to do.
The word Satan means challenger. With the idea of Satan challenging us, or tempting if you will. This description sees Satan as the angel who is the embodiment of man's challenges. This idea of Satan works closely with God as an integral part of Gods plan for us. His job is to make choosing good over evil enough of a challenge so that it becomes clear to us that there can be only one meaningful or logical choice.
Contrast this to Christianity, which sees Satan as God's opponent. In Jewish thought, the idea that there exists anything capable of setting itself up as God's opponent would be considered polytheistic or setting up the devil to be an equally powerful polarity to god or a demigod.
Oddly, proof for The Christian satan/devil mythology is supposedly found in the ancient Jewish texts that were borrowed to create the bible. One can’t help but wonder how Christians came up with such a fantastically different interpretation of Gods assistant Satan in their theology.
Other hints about Satan’s role in human relations can be seen if you look at the name Lucifer. It’s meaning in the original tongue translates as Light bearer or light bringer. Essentially the bringer of enlightenment. The temptations of the Satan idea bring all of us eventually into Gods light. Hardly the Evil entity of Christian mythology.

During the Bible days, Satan had physical powers. But after Jesus returned to Planet H (Heaven), Hell was disbanded and the COG (Council of Government) reduced Satan's power to simpy "His sales Pitch".
Ergo: No more possession except in the movies.

Don't drive at 2:00 AM. Satan's friends will find you. I'm referring to the friendly police.

people have no patience, in general, anymore
the road is full of drivers who are rushing to get to and fro, here and there, and in the shortest amount of time possible.
I don't think it's satan, I think it's stress

I don't see it written in scripture, but it sure seems like it might be so.
