Obviously he should have priority as he is OLD (and rich & privileged) and obviously she should have priority as she is a LADY (and rich and privileged).

Once witnessed a similar standoff between a Mini and a tractor and trailer. Situation resolved when a bunch of farm hands CARRIED the Mini through the field and deposited it back on the track behind the tractor.

Maybe they should both get smaller cars.

It looks as if this poor man is not very confident about reversing - and I have a certain sympathy with that as I could not honestly describe it as my forte - I have to do it a lot round here as we have mainly single track lanes!

Why the younger woman could not have the grace to help him out by reversing I cannot imagine - but maybe that is how open-top car drivers behave. (ducks in case any Gransnetters drive such cars!)
