There isn't a dominant strategy in this scenario because each player's best option depends on what the other player does. If both players drive straight, they will crash and lose. If both players swerve, they will both be safe but lose face. If one player drives straight and the other swerves, the player who swerves will be safe but lose, while the player who drives straight will be deemed the winner but also suffer the consequences of the crash. Therefore, the best strategy depends on the other player's strategy, making it a game of incomplete information.
