This is a global issue. Well Western World at least. We have the same problem in Australia but we have a new issue that amplifies all bad driving....ICE. No not the cold one the drug one. ICE taking brain dead, dip shit morons involved in road rage and high speed fatal crashes, usually in a stolen car, has risen to ridiculous levels.

Then there are the recent arrivals from China and India. China and and Inda have road tolls in the millions so I'm thinking Drive Ed in China is about as important as Anti smoking laws., while in India the sacred cows get right of way anywhere anytime of day.

We also have to suffer 'Grey Nomads' (cashed up retirees who decide to buy a $300k 40' camper van, having never driven anything bigger than the family car, and circumnavigate our coast line) traveling at 80km/h on 110km/h highways.

Perhaps if the 'Grey Nomads' took ICE the traffic would actually flow better!

Having driven in the US I'd say LA was the most frightening. Traveling at 75mph and less than a car length from the car in front is pretty scary, and I was a trained high speed pursuit driver in a previous occupation.
