Wrong.  The road is shared property (a commons), and it is wrong and
unacceptable to waste headway that other people are waiting in line to
use, just as it would be wrong to waste any other common resource.

If you do this, I hope the crowd takes it away from you.

Followups reset since the subject, driving behavior, belongs in r.a.d.
