what's the meaning of this sentence?
Mike Boccia,Ph.D,a cognitive therapist,has learned to use humor
to quell his own anger when driving down the freeway. If someone
cuts in front of him, rather than become angry, Dr. Boccia uses
humor to put the situation in perspective.Dr.Boccia reported to me
in an interview that he tells himself, “Look, that person must have
gotten his driver’s license in a cereal box.” Dr. Boccia looks for ways
to laugh at himself and the situation.By changing his thinking or his
cognitive response in these situations, he can avert a negative
emotional reaction. He finds driving much more pleasurable, and
he doesn’t have to worry about being arrested for an incident of
road rage.

Its a joke, because cereal sometimes has toys in it. he is insulting the mans ability to drive by saying he got his licence out of a cereal box. :)
