    Half of the problems people have with cars would be solved if humans could be a scintilla more aware of others.

    But that will never happen so outlaw cars.

        Scintillating is uncommonly used but does appear occasionally in things I’ve read but I didn’t know the latin root or connect it when I saw the noun used by Op, so thanks for the link and chance to learn!

      Aware? Oh they are, they behave this way in spite of it.

      What they are missing is empathy and logic. Empathy, so they understand what burden they put onto others with their antisocial behavior. Logic so they understand that if we want positive effects for all in general, it just makes sense not to behave like an ass.
