One car waiting at a stoplight with hazards on. Why? I was taught hazards when moving is just enough so you can pull over safely- not to drive with except funeral cortege.
Clueless?
Driver flings open driver side door streetside as I'm about to pass. I drive defensively and can anticipate, but dude, stupid! I wonder who would be at fault if I tore his door off. Probably me, unfortunately. Or a poor biker getting clocked.
Was the car with hazards stopped or moving? If stopped, maybe they had trouble and hazards on makes sense. If driving, there are times when hazards on is ok but you are usually driving low speeds because of some issue.
Your second example sounds like an everyday situation that we all must be aware of. It happens. Move on.
