I just don't think it's fair that good and safe drivers should be made to feel fearful because of someone else's choices.

I know when I am in the situation, it worries me because i feel a sense of responsibility for any damage I might inadvertently cause through my actions.

If I didn't give a shit about cyclists, I wouldn't care either way would I? I'd just keep driving and let them suffer whatever the consequences happen to be.

I also should add that my brother and his wife and a number of good friends of mine are road bike cyclists. My brother was knocked off his bike when he was only about 18 and has suffered chronic back pain ever since.

I feel that I'm speaking from a position of care and concern. Not simple greed for road space.
