One thing I noticed while abroad in china, india, and thailand, is that drivers in those countries are much more alert. This could be by necessity because of narrower lanes, or the general amount of chaos on the roads beight higher. In any case the result is that we get lulled into a false sense of security in the US because most people do follow the rules and drive predictably. Since the pandemic especially I see someone actively doing bullshit on their phone/infotainment touchscreen while behind the wheel almost daily.
