main character energy

I see it every day on my way to or from work. Now that I drive (almost) every day to work on our busy highway, there's usually at least one car - you know the one - that exudes "main character energy". They drive around like they're the most important person on the road, everyone else's lives be damned. 

Yesterday it was a small white sedan who was accelerating to dangerous speeds given the bumper-to-bumper traffic, weaving in and out of lanes with inches between cars as he (she?) passed, only to get stuck in the far left lane anyway (as I chuckle to myself after watching this display of stupidity). Were they late? Did they think getting 5 cars ahead in a long line of stuck cars will help them make their appointment or get to work on time? Who knows the reason, but the result will be the same: you're still late. 

That's what we normally call "main character energy". But I thought about it this morning...am I doing that anyway, by being all smug and calm in my car, knowing I'm probably going to make it to my destination in one piece? If something happens to that person, it's happening to them, it's not happening to me. And if what happens to them affects other people past my exit - well that's not affecting me either. I'll be off the highway and on more trusted local streets. 

Is that main character energy too?
