Historical in the US.
I get that it's a petty slur, but nowadays it has more to do with fatheaded ignorance.
Here in the west you hear and see it all the time when a jackass with an over-sized and under-used truck cuts you off in traffic and doesn't even realize he did cuz he's 5 feet off the ground.
You've seen those around here.
