You want to make a big dent in traffic issues? For free no less?

Here you go kids: STOP DRIVING LIKE AN ASSHOLE

If you realize that when you drive like an asshole, everyone around you needs to drive defensively, the world would be a better place.

What happens when the world around you has to drive more cautiously? We have to go slower. And that causes the whole system to slow down.

Now I'm not saying that driving with caution is bad. Quite the opposite actually. But we all have those moments where a driver makes you more cautious. You see him eaving in the rear view, so you know he's going to do it to you. And you start to think, "Is he going to see you? Is there enough room in front of you? Do you pull up closer, or just give him room?"

If everyone remembered that everyone wants to get home and just tried to get everyone home quickly and safely...we'd have all the road capacity we need.
