Trevor Noah‘s road rage days are long behind him. On this morning’s episode of The Drew Barrymore Show, the comedian revealed how his driving habits have changed since moving from South Africa to the United States.

Noah appeared on the morning talk show to promote his new book, Into the Uncut Grass, which is meant to teach kids about conflict as it follows a young boy who’s at odds with what his parents expect from him.

The former Daily Show host opened up about what he’s learned about conflict.

“Fundamentally, all conflict is is an opportunity to get to know the person you’re in conflict with,” he told host Drew Barrymore. “That’s really what a conflict is about. It’s a moment where somebody else is approaching reality from a slightly different perspective to yours.”

“And if we have the time, it’s a wonderful opportunity to get to know them or even know what in us they’re evoking that brings out the conflict,” Noah continued. “With parents and children, that’s predominately why I wrote the book.”

Noah also referred to his own road rage habits as an example of conflict he’s experienced.

“I’ll be honest with you. I used to love road rage because I loved the theater of it,” he said. “So what I used to do, I would get into road rage — this was before I lived in America, because here people have guns and stuff, I was like, ‘No, no, no, no.’”

He continued, “But in South Africa, I was like, ‘I love the road rage.’ I would drive and try to catch up to them and I would be like, ‘What were you doing!’ Because my secret joy and my hope would be that we’d get to a traffic light together because then we couldn’t do anything.”

Noah compared road rage drivers to “dogs on a leash,” explaining that dogs “go crazy” when they’re attached to their owners, but recoil when they are let free.

“That’s what happens to drivers,” he added. “You get to the light and now you don’t know what to do with yourself. So I love that theater.”

Barrymore then chimed in with her take on the situation, telling Noah, “You’d be forced to face each other, which is the whole point. If we just stopped for a minute and if we can have one sentence let alone a conversation, what would that be like? That can also happen within ourselves, too.”
