As a bicyclist, I make it a point to yield control of the road to cars. However, there are always drivers who think bicyclists don’t yield enough control, or have had confrontations in the past. There are some very few drivers out there that would like to run over a bicyclist while no one is watching, which always worries me a little.
Scary aren’t they? I had a couple of guys try to pull up next to me and pull me through the open window of their car whicle I was going a pretty good pace. I screamed hit my brakes and started riding back to my hubby who was about 30’ behind me.
As a driver, I make sure cyclists have a LOT of room. You can never tell what they’re going to do. Most of ‘em don’t use hand signals or anything else.
