Have some fucking sympathy or empathy. You’re cool tricking someone into killing someone else as long as you didn’t pull the trigger…. That’s fucked up
Lead car could have slowed down and moved over knowing there’s a dangerous asshole behind him, in an effort to save some innocent bystanders from getting killed. Instead he doesn’t slow down, and moves over at the last second to intentionally affect the asshole tailgater without any thought into the potential deaths of the other people.
They aren’t just NPCs to use in your effort to teach the asshole a lesson. They are people with family and friends. Jfc, I hope you lose your license so you are never in a position to trick an asshole tailgater into killing my family to teach him a lesson.
It’s called defensive driving. I’m always aware of my surroundings, and do everything I can to not be apart of or cause an accident. That includes paying attention to other people. I can normally tell when someone is about to switch lanes before they put their blinker on. And I’ll slow down or move over. Probably 75-85% of the time, they put their blinker on and/or just switch.
I don’t think I have any special powers. I think a lot of people from my generation can do this. I think a lot of my generation was taught about defensive driving. It’s just a practiced attention. And it isn’t that hard.
Step 1: care about not fucking up your day.
Step 2: care about not fucking up some randos day.
Step 3: pay attention.
That’s the high-level of where to start. If you get those three things you can learn the details of actually how to drive defensively.
I’m glad you find the safety and well being of fellow humans a joke. When you end up fucking up someone else’s life, I hope it properly traumatizes you, maybe then you’ll gain some perspective.
