> ### On the emphasized term **“imbecile”**
>
> - **Meaning**:
> “Imbecile” is a derogatory term used to describe someone as extremely foolish, stupid, or lacking sense. In older psychiatric usage (now obsolete and offensive), it once referred to a category of intellectual disability. In modern English, it is mainly an insult for someone perceived as idiotic.
>
> - **Part of Speech**:
> It functions as both **a noun** (e.g., _“That imbecile doesn’t understand.”_) and, less commonly, **an adjective** (e.g., _“An imbecile plan”_). In the passage you provided, it is used as a **noun**, referring directly to the driver.

> Would you like me to also suggest some alternative Taiwan-usage translations for **imbecile** (e.g., 粗魯點的、日常更常見的用法), so you can choose the nuance that best fits Felix’s tone?
