Driving: Even idiots can do it!

Well, this is a pretty generic one that everybody can relate to. I was stopping at a four way intersection going south. The person traveling east and I stopped at the same time, and the person traveling west stopped after us both. After the person traveling north who had stopped before all of us went I let the guy going east go first. After he went I went, but before I was out the first half of the intersection the jerk going west started to go as if he was supposed to go before I was. That was irritating, but not as bad as later on. I saw about 5 cars blow through a red light at a four way only because there was a train blocking travel in one direction. Now I saw a lot more bad driving today and every single other day as a matter of fact and that brought something to my attention. Every single person that drives ignores multiple rules of the road. Nobody actually drives as the law states that they should. I think it's just that people are either too lazy to care, or they just don't care at all, and in both cases they're probably ignorant morons as well. Don't get me wrong here, I'm not always perfect myself but I don't blatantly ignore laws such as stopping at red lights. People need to wise up and start following the rules of the road, not for them, but for the safety of those around them.
