I think so. Road ragers are not really irrational. They don't pick on trucks that can run over them without slowing down, cops, or cars full of probable gang members.

I've mostly driven small and usually beat-up cars.

I have to agree with that as well. Nice to see somebody listens and stays quiet.

Road rage is not a defined crime and no one keeps accurate statistics on it. It can range from shaking fists and yelling all the way to intentionally causing wrecks and murder.

FWIW, I thought it was much worse in the city of Chicago than in Texas, but I spent a lot more time behind the wheel there.

Here are some self-reported statistics. They look pretty random to me. The number of incidents in big cities probably reflects the population and traffic density:
