There is an inverse relationship between the number of bumper stickers on a car and the mental health of the driver.

A few years ago, there was a study that said drivers with multiple bumper stickers were more likely to get involved in road rage incidents. Something about being more sensitive to perceived invasions of their personal space.

There's a huge difference between having 1-3 stickers (think soccer mom with the stickers representing members of her family) and the nutjobs that outfit the whole rear end with a myriad of stickers. Typically, they are driving a total jalopy too. It's easy to see they're off, somehow, from an outside perspective.

I agree. The soccer mom with the family member stickers is, in reality, FAR more likely to kill you without any road rage involved. I speak from experience.

A former girlfriend used to say that women are better at multitasking than men... usually when she decided that my sun visor needed to be adjusted when I was changing lanes in busy freeway traffic.

I told her I agreed that soccer moms were much better at multitasking. Instead of focusing on driving, they can also put on makeup, talk on the phone, change the radio station, read a book, drink a smoothie, adjust the kid's seat belt in the back seat and run over a motorcyclist, all at the same time.
