    You guys get to drive subconsciously? People here drive like lunatics. I legitimately cannot take my mind’s eye off the road without getting snapped back to consciousness by a near collision when someone tries to enter my fully occupied lane

      Honestly if driving is that hectic for you, maybe you’re the problem? I’m not sure where you’re from but I’m the states or eu it’s just not that bad.

        It absolutely is that bad. I’m in the US and drive to multiple locations every single day. Of course some areas are better/worse than others, but in my subjective opinion, it keeps getting worse. Distracted driving, drunks, texting/insta/whatever, aggression, impatience, excessive speeding, being from lane to lane without signaling, straight-up dangerous maneuvers, etc. I see it all the time. What’s not subjective is that road deaths are going up, at least in the US.
