"Much of the carnage on our roads today is caused by rude, angry people behind the steering wheel."
Really? I thought it was caused by, tiredness, not paying attention and alcohol!
"The problem is the experienced people with knowledge to share do not go there because they are often treated with contempt and rudeness."
I think a lot of the 'experienced people with knowledge' on this forum help dish out the rudeness!
I don't think you can say that rudeness is a modern phenomenon which can be attributed to the proliferation of internet forums, or that being rude is always a bad thing - my girlfriend quite likes a bit of rude behaviour sometimes! If someone has been rude to you, swear back at them and laugh it off! That's what we do to each other, both on the forum, and in real life - no-one takes it too seriously.
