Doing what is to be done
Choice: Not cause a scene and "adjust" or risk coming off as an "arrogant" person
Many people would choose the later because we all don't want trouble or to be perceived as rowdy by the society, but maybe sometimes we have to standup for our own rights and not wait for others to standup for us. "Adjusting" and going with the flow is easy in short-term but in long-term it affects the society because sometimes it needs people, people like you to standup to the offenders and tell them to their face that what they're doing is wrong.
So maybe next time you face such a situation maybe standup against the offenders for once? Be it that arrogant person smoking in public oblivious to harm he is causing others, or asking that person blocking free left to move, advising your parents/friends to wear helmet/seatbelt.
Be polite, but be firm and try to change the society for better. Take part in the reformation of our society be bold.
