You're right to a degree, but I spent many hours driving in Europe recently and while it was refreshingly better, I still consider a lot of behavior I saw assholish such as driving way over the speed limit. It's just selfish and reckless. Saw that constantly.
Oh... Well, if they do it in the left lane who cares tbh. I don't really speed that much, usually 130 in a 120 lane if it's not congested, or if traffic is going at that speed, but there's always the random car going super fast in the left lane, whatever.
Each country has their culture obviously, saying Europe is not specifying much tbh, but here in Spain it's socially accepted that most people go over the limit of the situation allows for it, and we don't really care if someone is going fast in the highway in their special lane. It's not that common and it doesn't really happen inside cities or places where it matters.
PD: big cities like Madrid are crazy though, everyone is angry and shouting all over the place, breaking laws nonstop. But that's Madrid, a really stressful place to drive, people are burned out.
I'm talking about 30+ km/h over on a crowded highway. Weaving in and out of lanes like a racecar driver. But regardless being in the left lane isn't an excuse. Hence the law does not allow for that. It's still highly dangerous and not considerate of anyone else's safety.
Well, I agree there, but I'd be surprised if you doing more than one of those a week even if you did trips through Spain on a daily basis. Those are rare here.
In any case, going back to you original point that you only need to take a 15 minute drive to see that 80% of people are assholes, I think that that's been debunked already. Have a great day ๐
Yes let us take all words entirely literally and then compare against the best possible case. People suck, you've not been paying attention.
You are the one that has not been paying attention. You are generalising a big minority in most places in regards to driving, then extrapolating to the general population everywhere.
It seems that you want to keep living weary of everyone because of your conception of some people. It's sad but you do you.
I don't think further discussion has any merits, have a nice day.
