1. bring honour or credit to (someone or something) by one's attendance or participation.

It's amazing when it happens, but we have nothing to sing about when it comes to our behaviour on the road and around parking spaces.

This may be the time of year when we place great emphasis on giving and receiving, so why Psycho Sydney motorist are you so hopelessly graceless when you get behind the wheel?

Why are you so aggressive when someone wants to filter into your lane from the left? Why do you speed up to block them or angrily sound your horn to warn them off? Why can't you wave them out of a side road rather than cut them off when you are stuck at a red light? Why can't you stop to let them reverse out of a parking space when you are in barely moving traffic?

Why must you charge headlong at that single lane left between two rows of parked cars rather than just wait a few seconds for the car coming towards you to finish getting through? And why, when someone lets you through first can't you say thank you?
