Road rage like any issue in a democracy quickly becomes yesterdays fad, fancy or news. We're all focused now on gun crime and stabbings etc. When we're tired of that we'll find something else to go on about. And, so it goes. My guess is that the incidence of road rage is probably the same as previously. But, if the judges hand down massive sentences to one or two road rager nuts, this then stops it for a bit while everyone has a think. What if etc...?

I spoke with a state trooper pal of mine last nite about that same thing. He told me in the years he's done this, he and his bear buddies agree on one thing. 8 out of 10 cases of road rage are directed to some poor idiot driving in the left lane. Most major highways in the US have signs that say Slower traffic stay right. Left lane is for passing, emergency vehicles, and turning.
Drive up I-95 here in NC at any time. There will ALWAYS be some blue hair, or total idiot in the left lane, with 20 cars on their butt. And they wonder why i give them the NC Good Luck salute when i finally DO get to pass...

I still have road rage! I wish i had a rubber bumper so i could smash into ppl that get in my way! If the sign says 55 you should drive 55. Sunday drivers should not be allowed on the road. If you are on the expressway stay in the right lane so ppl speeding can get through.UGGHH

It defo still happens. Winds me up just sitting here thinking about the traffic; hate the school run mums. You'd think that kids were all born without legs these days as they seem incapable of walking anywhere and need to be chauffeured to school in a 9 seater, one kid in the back arrrrrgh! And stop blocking up my road in the morning, I have to cycle on the path to get passed all the inconsiderate parking. School run amoeba.

No, just because YOU aren't hearing of it does not mean it is not happening. Do YOU comb through all the police reports in your town or state or nation?
Just because Anna Nicole's autopsy is priority news does not mean millions of people have calmed down on the freeway.

It's still there, I try to ignore it and just think the other driver is a complete "w anchor".
No point in letting it wind you up as you will never meet that person and they are only behaving like that in a car.

People are over road rage, just like the hippies will eventually get over 4x4s/jeeps/suvs/soap.
