Rules, it was amusing what some people think are the rules of the road. Truth we can always learn something. I recall a retired cop saying your job is to see everyone gets home safely, Not to teach others a lesson.

The law. I recall learning that postal vehicles have the right of way. Not sure if that applies to UPS, Fedex or Amazon.

The villages. Most of our driving is in residential neighborhoods. We deal with bikes, golf carts, walkers turtles, and those cranes. The cranes are truly interesting. None seem to care about rules.

In any case, THE GOAL IS FOR ALL TO GET HOME SAFELY. If, you are constantly thinking others are stupid, inconsiderate, too slow, shouldn't be allowed on the road.
Perhaps, you are the problem.
Not sure what your post has to do with my post that lawn companies are usually single owners, and FedEx and UPS have timed delivery routes. How exactly am I the problem you long winded post of practices in other state, wildlife and “your goal for all to get home safe, have anything to do with using my post to quote from.

I can watch FedEx, UPS, and lawn companies from my lanai. No cart, or car required for me to be as you quoted “Perhaps, you are the problem”
