Just for a small example: the other day I was in my car, in a huge queue. It took me one hour to get to the road exit I wanted (this was about 10 km away from where I left). I was in the middle lane and htere was a right lane, that went in a different direction. Some guy who thought it would be smart, came down that right lane, undertaking all the queue, and came to stop by my car, signaliing that he wanted to be let in. I was so frustrated by this behaviou that I told him, "I have been in this queue for an hour. So maybe you should get in at the back of the queue and have some respect for others. You know what he said? "Why don't you go and suck on a huge turd?" (yelling). He had his wife and 2 kids in the car. I was speechless, and shocked to say the least. It's the sort of thing that makes me think, what a shit human being I just met. I could never understand that man.

While not trying to pigeon hole the whole thing to road rage. Bad behavior is just that and those that "do the right thing" will never understand the selfishness that it takes to be such an asshole.
The father giving a good example to his kids and family of what it takes to be an ass, and since there is little to no repercussion, the chance will always be taken.
I see people like this all the time in NYC. Here I can understand it to some degree, because there's a finite amount of resources available to all the people and there's usually not enough to go around.
