They’re two different domains, and rarely does the same culprit get seen by the same judge doing both activities at the same time. So it seems an odd comparison to choose to draw, or to try to evaluate. No?
Personally, I’d say I’m more bothered than annoyed, and wanting to improve things, when I mention grammar errors. I prefer clear communication, and don’t like having to try to intuit what people mean when they’re writing incorrectly. I choose to express it far more often than I try to tell people they’ve been driving poorly, because there is an easy and safe way to do so with typos. In fact, it sometimes feels good to point out mistakes.
In contrast, when driving, there is rarely a safe and easy and productive way to share my comments. I’m also aware that the impact of me getting upset about other drivers may tend to impair my own attention, driving and decision-making, which is added danger I don’t want. (Unless I’m the only one in the car and it’s one of those annoying undertakers on the highway trying to exploit the safe buffer space I leave. Those people deserve to be cut off. ;-) )
Why did you capitalize Teachers and Mods?
@Hawaii_Jake Nice! Put the pedal to the metal!
