In high traffic you’re definitely being screwed - both by the continuing lack of a proper safety gap, and by not being able to go a normal speed. Which does add up in many of these situations.

But I guess we should just all self gaslight to feel better about it?



In heavy traffic nobody is going "normal speed". I'm not going significantly slower than anyone else.


In Bay Area traffic I’d literally be not moving at all for most of the time if I followed you advice, in heavy traffic. That’s the exact situation I’m talking about.
