Not you, it's true.
I think it's a combination of people who A) legitimately lost driving skills used to commute 45 minutes each way, now work from home-never go out B) More stressed out as @dulcima pointed out
C) are SIGNIFICANTLY more glued to their phones than ever before from "lockdown" so they use them all the time if driving or no.
The number of people I see just casually swerving into other lanes during normal traffic is nuts. People are happy to drive 5-10 miles under the speed limit in any lane, then some drivers (predictably frustrated with this) will weave in and out of the slow cars just not to be stuck behind these assholes. "Oh is that a green light? I should probably begin to consider preparing to outline a plan start accelerating, but not too fast!
glued to their phones
Just went shopping recently and I saw a lady on a video call, sign-talking to the other lady on the phone, while trying to drive in busy, complex, traffic. Only saw her for about half a block and she nearly hit 3 people and lane-drifted a dozen times.
We need to bring back pillories for bad/negligent drivers.
