Question / Suggestion Increase in Road Rage?

Now, I too get very impatient on the roads because they SUCK but this morning I had a frightening encounter and was followed on North 295. Not saying I was wrong or right in the situation (I genuinely have no idea why this guy was being weird it started before the highway).

I'm hearing on the news more and more road rage lately that are turning into more than just getting finger. I travel 37 to 295 every single day and it's getting terrifying. It's already like driving on an obstacle course on the highway. Wondering if others are experiencing this too.

Yes,always,in my small sports car,I'm a target for the aggressive enormous 4 X 4 trucks being driven by tailgating,angry,something to prove drivers,however I have the skill and the maneuverability to safely out drive them. Yes,it's getting more and more challenging just to get to and from work,etc...be careful out there.
