This PSA brought to you by several would-be assassins who tried to wave me in front of speeding cars in the last month and who will have to try harder next time.

It’s also ridiculous to assume that the driver that you’re letting through would just stop checking for oncoming traffic

That's why the asshole future assassin creates an entire wall of cars stopped behind him, making it impossible for you to see if any car is coming on the other lane.

And also stays there, for as long as needed, stopping the flow on two different directions, putting the social pressure on you to follow along.
