Elevator rides vs Driving rides

So, I don't know if anyone else has ever noticed this but driving in a car is kind of like riding in an elevator...Nobody really wants to be close to anybody in an elevartor especially where you have to make eye contact. It is the same in a car. Have you ever noticed nobody drives side by side and if you have to one car is always a little further ahead than the other one. Also, when you pull up to a red light nobody stops directly next to you they are either a little bit forward or back. Yesterday I tried to pull up exactly the same spot next to another car and that car pulled forward a little just so we were not exaclty equal. If you are next to someone you know that you always have to look over and then you look over and then that person looks over and then you turn your head quickly or fiddle with the radio or something. It is just the same in an elevator. You don't stand exactly next to anybody and you if you do make eye contact you turn away and fiddle with something you are holding or stare off into space. I just thought it was funny how the two things were kind of similar and was just wondering if you thought the same...
