Your “Patience Is A Virtue” editorial was a good one: a good “lesson”, plus good advice. Unfortunately, it was probably “preaching to the choir”, because patient drivers will continue practicing responsible, careful driving habits; while impatient, reckless fools who arrogantly think that their time is more important than anyone else’s safety, will likely continue their bad driving habits.
If only horn-honkers like that Mercedes owner were the worst ones on the road. It’s more the speeders, swervers, texters, and drunkards who cause the most damage and death. I only wish that each of them would hit a vehicle or an incapacitating pothole before they cause an accident that will kill or maim some innocent person.
