The following question was presented:
It seems to me that everyone is in a rush nowadays. It used to be that only idiots like me drove fast, but everyone appears to do it now from soccer moms/mums to tree hugging hybrid drivers. But then again, it could just be that I'm old. Are people in more of a rush these days or am I old?

Analysis:
Ha, ha, ha. A unilateral decision then. Yes, I will take it on the chin that I'm old. Definitely showing signs of wear and tear. I do, however, firmly believe that everyone is just in a rush these days. Well, unless you work for the council I suppose. I watch quite a lot of car videos on YouTube given my most recent hobby and it's interesting when you look at trends. One of the biggest things that sells cars is power. Even people that drive the family car, want there to be a little bit of extra power there so they can put their foot down when they want to. What also makes me laugh is people cutting in at the last minute. Everyone does it infront of my truck and I just think “you must trust the brakes on this better than I do”. I think my truck and car are on opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to stopping distance, but ironically I don't get cut up as much in the car. I think the psychology is that you look at the car and think it's not going to hold me up, but you look at the truck and think I don't want to get stuck behind that. I mean, we all do it, lol!
