Nothing to do with "drivers" as such. People on public transit are the same. There's this one guy who yelled at the top of his lungs "GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAAAAAY!" when people didn't let people off the metro first. That's not an inconvenience as much as a brain failure in the other people, but...
(I'm avoiding that station until people forget what I look like.)
No no no that guy was 100% right, you let people off or youre slowing everything down. I suppress the urge to yell that every time I get on the subway.
But lmao no public transit is not as stressful. People take naps on trains and buses all the time. I very rarely see people sleeping while riding a car or bike.
That guy ... was ME!!!
Every time I board a subway in China or Korea, I should carry a projector and show the people waiting how good the Japanese are at getting on and off subways. As long as it's a platform with a full wall, and not the half wall a mob of people could potentially chuck you over.
Sounds complicated. I just shove people out of the way. Unless they're kids, old people, or infirm in some way.
