Aggressive drivers became emboldened by the early free-for-all days, where commute times were quartered and you could get away with anything. They also got used to not having anyone or anything really in their path.
As traffic got back to normal, a lot of them never adjusted their driving style or considered the idea of sharing the road. Now being passed for yielding at a crosswalk or even while making a rolling stop, getting honked at for not running reds, and people tearing down residential streets are much more common.

Yeah, I agree with this 100%. I think that's exactly why people are behaving this way.
