If you drive normally I’ll let you pass. But if you’re up in my ass flashing highbeams when I’m still overtaking? Grab a snack buddy cause we’re going nowhere and we’re not going there fast either.

What I’m hearing is you require other drivers to drive deferentially in such a way that caters to your ego in order for you to drive safely and avoid conflicts, otherwise you drive like a sociopath for sport?
Though I read a story (I think on lemmy, though it’s been a while) of someone trying to meet an ambulance in the middle of nowhere (Texas, I want to say?) as their friend was bleeding out, basically.
A lady did what you describe and it took critical time away. The friend ended up dying just before they met the emts.
Not everyone who looks like they are a dick, are one.
If you do what the comment describes it’s fine. But if you do it to an ambulance you deserve to be shot as I do think we can all agree there is a distinct difference between any regular car and an ambulance.
I think the story goes that the ambulance was driving towards a car containing the patient, and the car containing the patient was also driving towards the ambulance.

Jesus fucking christ calm down you lunatic
Yeah, play chicken with a maniac driving a 2 ton vehicle. Good luck.
Driving at the speed limit is not ‘playing chicken’
‘Legally right’ means dick to these people.
Let them pass lest they do something reckless and take you with them in the process.
If you’re that car in the first place, you’re blocking traffic. Get the fuck out of the way.

It’s tragic but that is an infrastructure failure more than anything else.
I’m my tiny country we have trauma helicopters for stuff like that. You should never get into your own car with stuff like that.
Secondly how did it is to have a alarm line operator tell you to get into your own car to meet the ambulance half way. How did that work?
That makes more sense. Thanks
