I mean it makes a lot of sense. The distance on the map has a lot less relevance to my day to day life than how long it takes to travel it. That is true for any kind of transportation, so I don’t know what op means with that.

Eye contact is also common sense.That’s one good way of being sure the other person is aware of you and your vehicle.

Or they do switch but for like 1 day and then go back to messaging you on WhatsApp. I tried switching to signal at least a couple times, even convinced a couple groups to move, but not a single chat lasted more than a couple weeks. Eventually they all went back to WhatsApp. Every single one. It’s extremely difficult to get people to care.
