One of the most noticeable lifestyle changes I've had to endure since moving back to the States from Europe is driving a car instead of riding a bike or (god forbid!) walking. The fortunate thing about this transition is that I DO enjoy driving, largely due to listening to music in my own private bubble while doing so.
This said, I also kinda hate driving...entirely due to how inconsiderate drivers seem to be. Typically, this sentence seems to mean something along the lines of other drivers being too aggressive, but although this can be a problem, I usually mean that they're not being aggressive enough. I HATE it when people drive as if they don't want to get where they're going or they're scared of the journey. I'll admit that I tend to judge these people being that way in other aspects of their lives.
Other ways drivers tend to be inconsiderate are not using their blinkers, intentionally sitting in a lane that blocks people from taking a right turn when they could've gone straight in another lane, using their brights too much, going slower in "dangerous" weather, going slowly on one-lane roads, not being aware that they're created a two car wall on a two-lane road on the interstate, rubbernecking, and plenty of others. UGH.
