I do this with traffic. People edge their cars forward and I'll just sit there.

Where are you going? The light isn't any less red.

This is a real pain in the ass if you drive manual:

Auto cars relax pressure on brake pedal to inch forward;

Manual cars take foot off brake, drop clutch, engage gear, engage clutch, move forward, drop clutch and engage brake again, gear to neutral, foot off clutch.

I'm sure all this inching forward happened a lot less when most cars were manual (Europe).

As a manual car enjoyer, my brain does all these tasks automatically without the need for conscious attention.
