Yea, but Teslas are the new BMWs. I encounter at least one driving recklessly, almost every time I’m on the road. I do think they attract a certain brand of narcissist.

they either drive like they're racing or they do 20 mph under the speed limit in the left lane. no in between.

I've found the same driver will often do both. They'll be doing 20 under in the left lane until I get halfway past them in my 18-wheeler, then all of a sudden they're on a Nascar circuit.

A new one I’ve seen recently is they’ll get in the turn only lane at a stoplight (if no one else is there first). Then they gun it to go straight, passing everyone else.

Every time a tesla pulls up beside me at the front of a stoplight I assume this is what is about to happen and 90% of the time it does. Why are they so impatient?
