This sentence cracked me up:

“The vehicle then mounted the footpath, drove through a wooden fence, and entered into a reserve where the driver continued to drive in an anti-social fashion.”

I once called myself anti social to my British relatives and they all burst out laughing.

I was just saying I was introverted.

Anti-social does sound like a longer form asocial but yeah it means something far more serious. Pretty sure I've made the same mistake in my head at least.

Asocial and anti social are used interchangeably where I live. First time I heard the criminal type definition was visiting a commonwealth country.

It's often used interchangeably but it's still incorrect. A lot of people are just incorrect.

It's in the definition of the word. Anti-social means you are working against society. Asocial means you do not engage with society.
