Seems like they really do give a license and an '09 Altima to anyone with a pulse.

Conversely, driving a Tesla also makes you a target for aggressive driving. The number of people who feel threatened by EVs is astonishing and many are not afraid to let you know about it via cutting you off, tailgating you, or refusing to let you merge.

I drive a Chevy Bolt for work and RAM drivers routinely roll coal on me.

No, I drive a Volt when I drive my Volt that I own. It is not quite the rocket-powered go-kart that tue Bolt is, but it's still quicker off the line than your average can and a lot of fun to drive. Chevy's hybrids and EVs are totally decent cars that cost very little to operate.

I like to cut off Teslas in particular because they have extra safe following features.

I used to drive a Prius, and unlike most Prius drivers, I would go 80+ often. Any time you pass someone, they then take it as an affront to their masculinity and need to pass you. I've gone by someone driving 75 while going 80, only to have that same person freak out, and speed up to rip past at 90+. It's wild.
