So, if you were standing in front of someone pointing a gun your risk of being shot would be as much your responsibility as it would be theirs? Same logic, I'm just trying to understand the reasoning behind it being acceptable and appropriate to create new risk where there was none before.

Edit to add: Also, if there was someone in front of the car in front of you, would you still tailgate?
