It would be an exaggeration to say that you have gotten used to it.
To these giant monsters of vehicles that take up so much space, that nobody can see children up to elementary school age over their hoods and that simply signal: Get out of there, I'm the stronger!
Even when vehicle drivers are at work who do not knowingly and willingly use their body as a weapon, as has recently happened again: Driving and parking has long been established that prohibits calling itself “style”.
Aggressive legs apart can also be lived out while sitting behind the wheel.
And because there was so much space on the freeways during the Corona lockdown, the occupants of these premium bodies have not only got used to switching back and forth across three lanes.
No, in the meantime the impertinence of every other road user to dare to use the same asphalt is sanctioned with maneuvers that would actually all be justiciable.
Support for the ego
Biggest sin: Do you happen to drive a little faster in a completely normal average car and dare to overtake one floor on the left. Experienced several times recently on the A 66 autobahn: The pausing, flirting, telephoning road user in the Alpha car perceives the shame, the shame of being overtaken by a cheap family carriage. And takes revenge by applying maximum throttle in the middle lane. Until, overtaking from the right, he has finally regained the place he deserves: all the way to the left, right up front, very quickly.
What do such people actually do when they peel themselves out of their car?
What kind of support do you need for your ego beyond this PS corset?
A lot and nothing comes to mind.
Until you ride a bike.
And notices: There, too, the trend is towards the murderous vehicle that hits everyone else on the left and right of the bike path.
Thick frame, thick wheels, advertising praises robustness and extreme "fun" - as with the four-wheelers too.
If you don't evade it yourself, you're out of luck.
In the middle of the bike path, with a bluetooth box on the handlebars, comes a shot: the fat bike, the SUV among bicycles.
Suddenly everything comes to mind that is narrow and quiet.
