In just a few paragraphs you have touched on many aspects of the problem with supporting examples aplenty. It is so refreshing to finally see motorist culture put into perspective. The question is what can we do to enact real change, at faster than a snail’s pace, in a climate of a public, media, and political scene that empathize with reckless drivers? I want radical change and I want it now! Thanks again to Streetsblog for more brilliant commentary.

Our road culture is so bad that a traffic scofflaw can become a state's top law enforcement official.
