The media tends to sensationalize those road rage stories where a dude tracks another dude down and shoots him at a red light in front of his wife and kids. Yes they happen, but not nearly as often as the media makes you believe.

But every day you have accidents from people making some sort of mistake on the road. The greater the speed, the greater the chance of mistake, and the greater the consequence (death).

I mean look at Adenhart. You have an asshole driving drunk, thereby reducing his margin of error, and what happens. Now that is totally NOT the same thing as driving 95, driving 95 sober is a lot less dangerous than driving drunk at any speed. But you get the point. Anything that reduces the margin of error on the road is irresponsible behavior.

I genuinely think that what I do with the left lane squat reduces risk to all drivers around me.
