Since I got rid of my Dodge truck, I now get "tail-gated" frequently in my X5. Since socialogically the country is into the Socialist/Communist trac., thinking in general seems to be a "all-about-me" attitude and I think people's driving habits and attitudes reflect that. Plus, I have an American Flag and a wounded vet tag. Oddly enough, those facts seem to garner contempt rather than respect these days.
