Several days ago, I was on the road for about 10 hours driving home. I was listening to "doctor radio" on SiriusXM for part of the drive. There were a number of calls (a lot of health providers) about not having face masks, every infectious disease doctor was saying that unless the person is coughing or sneezing, you are safe to be close to them. The 6' rule is because of the unknown, like if they person coughed/sneezed and the virus drops were on there arm or cloths and you were unaware of that. Of course proper hygiene in washing your hands is important also.
I am going for a ride today, and not worried about other traffic, or stopping next to someone. Gassing up, afterwards, I have Clorox wipes that I will clean my hands with if I don't keep my gloves on. The virus is only supposed to live for at the most several hours on a surface, so not worried about washing my gloves afterwards.
I do say kudos to my local grocery store. Went to it yesterday, and they have an employee dedicated to wiping down the grocery carts prior to giving it to you.
