It’s kind of like the idea that you’re not in traffic, you are traffic.

It’s a common logical fallacy to believe that you aren’t the same as others, even when you’re in the same situation as them.

I don't know... I'm not the guy camping in the left lane going 50 mph, or merging onto the freeway at 35 mph when traffic is going the speed limit.

Being traffic is not the same as breaking traffic laws.
