On the selfish meter, where do you stand? Scale of 1-10.
1 - At a crowded four way stop, you let every single car go through, and all those behind you go around you. They have places to go, and they deserve to get through the dreaded four way stop before you. They're more important.
10 - You don't stop at any stop signs or stop lights. What YOU have to do is WAY more important than what anyone else has to do, regardless of the color of the light.
I think I'm about an 8.

I'd say about a 7. I don't like to share all that much, except for money... I've always been generous with money.
Now, chocolate is another matter altogether!

Since your example was with driving, I will give myself a 10. I cant stand 4 ways when people just sit there. I guess its not so much selfishness as Im just gonan go right away before everyone starts inching forward and slamming on brakes and then waving each other. I just go, usually without coming close to an actual stop.

I'd say 6. I have somethings I am selfish about but 9 times out of 10 if a anyone needs something I can usually make time for it.

Seriously, I can't stand it when things aren't exactly the way I'd like them. Someone could screw something up, and I will be extremely pissed about it. If I were to make the same screwup, I'd expect everyone to be OK.

I gave myself a 7. When I'm driving, I'm not usually in a hurry, but if I can go, I go. I like driving. Not sitting around.
I usually help people as much as I can though as well.
Idk. 7 is a good number.

I prefer to look at it as being "self-interested". Much better connotation than "selfish".
Oh yeah...8.

Just depends on who it is, if I have something and my family/friends are around, I'll share. If not, fuck off. I usually let the cars go through that got there first.

12. I don't give a shit about you if you can't even decide when it is your turn to drive through a 4-way stop.
