Traffic

"It's not one bit pleasant to be tailgated."

"If someone wants to come into traffic, we should let them come in. Instantly, you feel better, the other person feels good, and it uplifts the entire driving environment."

"Well, there's a scene in the film [Lost Highway] that has something to do with rules of the road. And it just strikes me that we could talk about what's happening in Los Angeles and maybe many places in the world: People are going through red lights.
It's a big problem. And I understand the frustration of the light turning yellow and the cars in front are going ahead. But it's extremely important to stop at a red light.
I always stop, because if we all want to get there quicker and safer we have to obey the rules."
