Then again not long ago a lady in her late 80s was driving down BV, in a cart. I slowed my car to let her know I would follow her to the next exit, to get her safety off the road.

When she was safe, she informed me she needed to get to the doctor and since she usually drove her car, this was the only way she knew to get there. Didn’t know how to navigate the cart path to office.

Not entitled, determined, and confused, but determined to get to where she was going, and the only way she knew.
I myself, all too often assign a negative intent to an action or statement, but being negative or nasty doesn’t change the situation and it just makes me miserable!

I felt lighter, happier after reading your reply- thank you for the positive perspective- which is as equally possible an explanation as the negative - and makes you and those that read it, more joyful.
