That idiot wouldn't survive a day on Texas roads. Here, we have a few simple unwritten rules of the road. It doesn't matter whether or not you agree with them because they will be imposed upon you anyway.
1) He who has the bigger vehicle has the right of way
2) If vehicles are of similar size, he who has the roughest body and paint has the right of way.
3) Compact cars and sedans serve a dual purpose -- transportation for the driver and a tertiary brake system for larger vehicles.
There is one physics formula that every driver should know:
Force = mass x acceleration (or deceleration)
A Prius has the mass of a coke can and therefore can impose little force.
