The degree to which other drivers have lost patience over the past 1 to 2 decades is abundantly noticeable.

Other forms of road courtesy have declined in the last few decades. I am generally a patient driver but the amount of people who pace with traffic and don’t pass in passing lanes is epidemic. I honestly think a lot of them are road trolling and know perfectly well it’s a passing lane, so I don’t give them the pleasure of seeing a reaction or tailgating. I agree with you though, it’s not just patience that is declining though. It’s many forms of positive qualities and virtues
Like George Carlin said, Anyone who drives too slow is an “idiot”, and anyone who drives too fast is a “maniac”.
