    I did see another stat about women surpassing men in having a license to drive. That would be my guess, as to why merging and lane changing have slowed down (it's like when they all go to the ladies room together).

    my favorite is the 4 wheeler that has to pass me only to cut me off to get off on the ramp. I have even had big trucks do it

    That's pretty amazing when a truck does it.

    Yep.....There was a bad one yesterday in the Texas panhandle on 385 near Channing. Two semi's hit head on, caught on fire, 3 drivers burned beyond recognition. Prayers for their families. That is the second time 2 semis hit head on on that highway this year.
