That's unnecessary.

Think more like "I can be really distracted and suddenly swerve because my toddler threw their drink at me".

Like with L-plate drivers. Be very careful, don't hate, they're just danger to themselves and everyone else around. They're not entitled, they're warning.

Yeah I get the logic but its still flawed and wrong (saying this as a father of 2 small kids who drives them around frequently).

You either are road-worthy driver who can drive safely or not. L ones are an approved exception and the list and law and expectations ends right there.

Nobody is babysitting 27 categories or potentially distracted or otherwise dysfunctional drivers. If you can't drive safely either have somebody else drive, use public transport or stay home. No excuses, you can very easily kill people including your own kids.

I interpret them similarly. I also think, "I might be lacking sleep, in a hurry, or have way too much on my mind."

Becoming a parent brought upon quite an increase in my empathy for other parents.
