People who run stop signs.

Ambulance chasers in traffic are the worst. People have no shame. Seeing an Ambulance in traffic and the slalom course behind it makes me sick…………

Agree completely with the sentiments in this thread.

Seems like the aggression, disregard for basic rules of the road, and general incompetence has really been taken up a level or two in the past few years. I love driving but it's an increasingly scary experience. I got hit in my car a little over a month ago on West Main Road by some idiot who shouldn't be licensed. It would take too long to explain the full scope of his idiocy, but let's just say it didn't take long to come down as 100% his fault.

Additionally when I head out on the bike (or car) I can't even leave my street without passing over a "POI" spray painted in the road. 2 dead cyclists in 3 months within a mile of my house.

Police presence, never mind actual enforcement, seems minimal at best. Not sure if it's a result of reduced budgets or what.

A lack of enforcement of *all* traffic laws, as opposed to just speeding, seems to be the problem. At any intersection with a traffic light, a cop could have a field day pulling people over for running a yellow or red light. Towns with tough enforcement get known quickly. Just look at how much "Do Not Speed At All Through Eastham" is common knowledge.

It's expected in NY---more the rule than the exception. Closely followed by the "run all the way to the closed lane barrier and then force your way into the line of people who merged" #^&#^&#^&#^& move.
