I am car C. I don't care if car D is pissed at me, because I have autism and driving is overwhelming for me. I'm being extra cautious because it takes me longer to process sensory input because I can't filter out the irrelevant things. Plus, I always make sure to check the crosswalks. I as a pedestrian have come very close to being hit while crossing multiple times and it seems most other drivers don't give a shit about pedestrians at all.

This is no excuse. If sensory issues make it difficult for you to drive correctly, then you should not be driving at all.
-
Can't speak for other nations, but driving is pretty much mandatory in most parts of the U.S. And the parts that have good transit and/or walkability are also the more expensive areas. Our car-centric infrastructure is very ableist.
They say that driving is a privilege. But not having to drive is also a privilege.
-
Because our society has widely available public transit and pedestrian/biking options, of course there is no overwhelming pressure to drive to be able to hold down a job and purchase food. /s

sorry this is a problem too american for the rest of us to sympathize about.

on the one hand, fuck you for your gatekeeping bullshit. You obviously don't understand how nearly every developed country has built infrastructure to exclusively allow car eccentric transportation. Busses, if they exist, suck ass. Bike lanes, if they exist, are also terrible. If you don't have a car, you can't live.
On the other hand, almost nobody should be in personal cars. Public transportation fucking sucks and needs to be massively improved so that people like whom you responded to don't need to drive.
edit: bring on your downvotes, I'm right and you can't handle it.

If you think being cautious is incorrect then you don't know what driving incorrectly means.
-
Stopping when you shouldn't is not driving cautiously, it is driving dangerously in disguise. Drive the way everyone expects you to or you will cause accidents.
-
Nothing says safety like being unpredictably cautious
-
They didn't say they would yield, just take slightly more time to make the appropriate checks. And not sure about your car, but most have lights that indicate what they're doing (slowing/stopping and signaling); which a cautious driver would likely use more effectively than I would assume someone who just drives how they think other people are expecting them to would.
-
And there's literally only one car to keep in mind, so it's way less problematic than a traditional 4-way intersection.

Being cautious is correct. Being unpredictable because you're driving abnormally is super dangerous.
The reason we have a driving system is so that everyone knows that to expect from everyone else. If you operate outside of that system you're a danger to yourself and everyone else.

Literally what I said

Seriusly, if you cant filter information or you are not able to react to your surroundings please dont drive. Half a second of reaction time more is a lot when you are driving a 2 ton car with 100kmh around... that si rhe reason drunk driving is not allowed or driving while high...

I live in freedumb land so cars are the only reliable option. I'd love to use public transit, but doing so would require me to at least drive to a park and ride, and the bus system where I live is unreliable. I'd love to immigrate to a country that isn't car brained, but I don't have the resources.

Thankfully driving with undiagnosed mental conditions are not criminalized in the states.
