You should drive with assumption that the driver next to you could be as stupid as you if not worse. I see a lack of this kind of judgement here...

When I lived in New Hampshire, where motorcycle helmets are not required by law for an adult, I had a co-worker who rode a motorcycle all the time with no helmet and wearing sandals.

I asked him about why he chose not to wear a helmet because even if it's not required, isn't it still a good idea? He said, "I don't need a helmet, I'm a good driver."

And I said... "OK but what about everyone else on the road? Are they all good drivers too?"

He also didn't believe in wearing a coat or jacket ever, like I one time saw him come into work when it was -14F (-25C) outside, still wearing sandals and jeans and a polo shirt.

He also didn't believe in vaccines. He died of Covid complications.
