The drivers mellow once they hit the city because they remember again what the city is like and get exhausted, one by one as they exit the tunnel, and can’t remember why they were in such a hurry to get there.

This is from The Intuitionist by Colson Whitehead. I wonder if getting exhausted is also a reason for drivers to mellow here.
 
It might be.
