sure it's fun to be smug, but those angry drivers will just focus their anger on removing bike lanes or other stupid things. Drivers are too stupid for any kind of self-reflection on their self-inflicted problems.

It's amazing to me how millions of Americans complain about traffic every day but never think about how to alleviate it.
they gave up on alleviating it a long time ago....
leather seats, premium sound system, in dash entertainment screen, extra large cupholders, reclining seats....
they've already accepted their prison sentence and just do everything to make their prison cell more comfortable instead of trying to free themselves.

That's the American mentality all the way: individual solutions to societal problems. Traffic taking up your time and killing the environment? Just buy a comfy car with good AC. Lethal traffic accidents? Just make sure your car is bigger so the other person gets killed. School shootings? Don't ban guns, just give your kid a bulletproof backpack.
It's a disgusting way to live, honestly.
