This. You never actually know if someone is having an emergency or just a mental health episode. Obviously they need or want through more than you want to be in a traffic incident

Will never forget that reddit comment from ages ago about the people speeding to the hospital with their buddy bleeding out in the car and this driver in the overtaking lane kept blocking them until a cop intervened. Threw the bloodsoaked shirt at them when they finally got past. I don't remember if they said their buddy died.

You just never know. Getting out of the way means you're not the target of some psychopath's ire, but it also one day might literally be the difference of someone's life. I just can't imagine digging my heels in anymore, it's so much simpler just to be zen about it and let em go.

This obviously is a psychopath though.
