    Drivers hate everybody. Driving is a miserable experience that makes people dissociated, stressed, and angry. In my experience, it’s especially true of the people who proclaim the loudest that they love driving. Rather, they love some idealized mental picture of what they think driving should be, but never can be. The dissonance sends 'em into a state of fury.

      people like driving just for the sake of driving, rather than for the sake of doing something else like going to work or getting groceries.
