I can almost guarantee it's either a BMW or an Audi that's one inch behind me on the motorway. So strange how universally true this is.
I’d guessed Audi/Diesel/Black/3yr lease based on my motorway commute.

#33Why would Benzes be so behind BMW and Audi? I’d prefer if they focused on sociopathy and narcissism versus psychopathy since I don’t feel like psychopaths are as common as the other two. Someone please do this study with programming languages, I have my suspicions.

#34Iirc there was also a finding that learning about economics makes people score higher on those tests, so I worry they are more of an ideological tool than science. They may simply have categorized behaviors they don't like as "psychopath". I don't trust them.

#37"Gold" tops the list of car colours correlated with psycho behaviour, and I thought, well, that makes sense - but then the one at the very bottom is "red". I'm having trouble arranging this into some consistent mental image of the correlation.
