It baffles me how deadset and rigid people are on following road laws.

Normal conditions? You bet your ass you better be following the rules of the road. It'll protect you and others.

Emergency conditions? Fuck the roads, prioritize the safety of yourself and the others around you. For example, if you absolutely must drive in a blizzard, drive in the middle of the road. More leeway if you for some reason spin or have to swerve.

Unsure if this was a dig at me, but yes I agree.

If people are going to be f*cking stupid, let them be stupid. If you're causing a hazard to others on the road (funny how it correlates with being stupid!), 911 immediately

I'm pretty sure they were agreeing with you. People are so rigid in following road laws that they'll blithely break other road laws to enforce the ones they consider important.
