The idea that another road user might have higher priority is unfortunately anathema to drivers here.
If this even happened here the corridor would simply be full of utes.
Excuse me, your honor, full of youths.
I understood that reference
I must be broken as often I'll let a bus out expressly thinking that a vehicle with 20 people in has to be more important than me.

Letting busses out: awesome.
It's actually really relaxing and de-stressing to be a considerate driver... right up until the ass tailgating you gets all uppity.
I'm in the UK so it's the norm (saying that, not sure if that applies to London). If they're indicating, you wouldn't dream of not letting them out.

I think it comes from having a very low population density for such a long time: the roads were empty enough that you could "own the road". Now, same roads with five times the density and that doesn't work out like that anymore but the mindset persists.
