I'm in the Baltimore/Wash DC area, some of worst traffic in the country. But the drivers are bad, too. Very common to approach a side street, make eye contact with other driver, then they pull out in front of me at last minute. Old, young, doesn't matter. You have to pretty much drive for everyone else when you get behind the wheel. Morning radio traffic report sounds like announcer at a demolition derby. Then repeat for evening. Short story then I'll finish my rant:

Got a call to check on my business around 4:30 am couple years back. Accident. Arrived to see my 14' box truck knocked out of its spot, with a demolished Japanese car just shy of running into the businesses at the industrial park. My truck had stopped it. Police said something about the woman trying to avoid a deer. I looked at the road--up a steep grassy embankment about 300' away, said the deer must have been chasing her for her to end up way down here and hit the ONLY thing parked in the lot.

Insurance co. tried to play along with the deer story, had to take pics, fight them, otherwise they were going to claim "act of God" and have me take care of replacing the truck. They relented and finally paid for a nice new truck. Should have sent the woman a thank-you note. Fortunately she and her passengers were not hurt.
