I have two takes here.

Manners are dying because we have a new generation who are so self-absorbed that

anything ouside their personal space is irrelevant. A lady fell over in a shopping centre

here and it took about two minutes for some-one (me) to help her up and see she was OK.

All the training in the world won't stop the kids from absorbing the generational imperitive.

Second take, road rage comes from people's inability to deal with their own frustration

fuelled anger. Self control? Why handicap yourself in this go-for-broke world?

We're living in some sad times.
