I try to do the secondary roads as much as possible. Slower yes, less nerve racking absolutely. I have the luxury of owning my own time though, I'm retired and can waste it as I see fit. On our big loop trip to Washington state and then to the Grand Canyon and then along the Gulf coast, 3 months and 9000 miles in all, I found most people to be very courteous actually. Not a single road rage incident or anything near it. Did I see people who are merge deficient? Yes. Cutting in in front of me a bit too close? Yep. Speeding by me at the speed of sound? Yep. My philosophy is I won't wreck you if you don't wreck me and I keep my distance and speed under control. I avoid grouping up. I work at avoiding a collision. That's called defensive driving. I don't care what others do really and what they do certainly doesn't ruin my travels. Travel on and be happy, don't sweat the small stuff.
