Life as usual didn't use to include vehicular travel, yet now it does, and we've just lived with the growing consequences like it's no big deal. Sounds kind of absurd and selfish to me. I wonder what the natives think?

As Torillian says, comparing motor travel to a pandemic is a stretch to begin with, but if we're just going to loosely compare them as things that can cause death, we enforce safety regulations on drivers to minimise said death toll. Mandating masks during a pandemic of an airborne virus is no different in this context to making people follow the speed limit. 

How effective is wearing a mask vs following the speed limit? Are we directly comparing or not? Those who don't follow their rules, mentioned prior, well.

I don't remember being against some reasonable masking rules, but I have pointed out why some won't bother following them and rightfully so based on how things have played out. That's not to say those individuals are right or wrong overall, but the blame mostly lies elsewhere.
