Wow. Not for me. I drive ten hours a day sometimes. Never freaks me out.

If you don’t start yelling at somebody or something within 10 minutes of getting in the driver seat you are in the vanishing minority of drivers. Are you some kind of monk?

Ancient ninja secret of give-no-fucks.

People have become so jaded by driving that they've lost the perspective on how much it beats the hell out of walking. Even if you consider being in 25 MPH highway traffic to be "slow," you're still covering more distance in an hour than most people would be able to cover on foot in an entire day.

Driving loses your perspective on speed because you're in a big metal box. Being on two wheels can regain the sense of speed at lower driving speeds, but I've noticed after 6 months of motorcycling that even those speeds can begin to feel slow on a motorcycle, especially on long rides. Sounds like that's my calling for the track :)

True. I went from homeless two years ago to having a car now, and I appreciate the reminder.

It’s so much fucking better than having to walk, or take public transit where any trip is minimum one hour even if it’s only a ten minute drive away.

Oh you mean just yelling at people? I thought you were talking serious emotional distress. Well of course I yell my head off at people it’s my civic duty as a driver to yell at people.

However I quit caffeine last week, and since then it’s down to maybe 5% as often as before. And I no longer find myself ranting after the thing is over. Just things like “whoa what the fuck!” and then it’s over.
