I work in a downtown area with lots of pedestrians and lots of cars, and the sidewalks aren't as wide as they should be since the city lets restaurants put their tables out on them.
Sometimes you'll be walking along and have to weave/squeeze by a slow walker. Then you get to the end of the block and are waiting on cars, and Mr./Ms. Slow Walker will amble up behind everyone, then push between people until they're standing in the front of the pack, which means that you have to weave/squeeze by them again on the next block, and the next.
There are a dozen people standing there waiting for the light to change, and you're the 2 mph person coming up behind them. First, do you recognize that they all passed you 20 seconds ago? And second, why do you think they're standing on that corner? Why do you have to push your way to the front? Is it possible that perhaps they're all waiting for the light to change just like you are?
