And why the hell is effectively running stop signs and red lights so normalized too?

If you are in America, its because our police fucking suck. There are no consequences until an accident happens.

Yup, US; and yup our police are mostly worthless or worse. I’ve never seen consequences even for DUI offenders.

That makes sense, this is what I see in the selfish US. Be vigilant and keep your country and cultural mindset the way it is or better.
