I am car C. I don't care if car D is pissed at me, because I have autism and driving is overwhelming for me. I'm being extra cautious because it takes me longer to process sensory input because I can't filter out the irrelevant things. Plus, I always make sure to check the crosswalks. I as a pedestrian have come very close to being hit while crossing multiple times and it seems most other drivers don't give a shit about pedestrians at all.

Seriusly, if you cant filter information or you are not able to react to your surroundings please dont drive. Half a second of reaction time more is a lot when you are driving a 2 ton car with 100kmh around... that si rhe reason drunk driving is not allowed or driving while high...

I live in freedumb land so cars are the only reliable option. I'd love to use public transit, but doing so would require me to at least drive to a park and ride, and the bus system where I live is unreliable. I'd love to immigrate to a country that isn't car brained, but I don't have the resources.
