  • I live in the Philly suburbs and drivers around here are great about bikes, very respectful and safe and generally giving us cyclists a wide berth. The problem is with that “generally” qualification - I’d say that 99.9% of all drivers are very careful around bikes, but that means 1 driver out of every 1000 cars is a dickhead. Since I’m passed by probably 200 cars during a 25 mile ride, that means I can expect about one risky road incident a week, which seems about right given my experience as a cyclist.

    Ironically enough, I’m a school bus driver and a highly disproportionate number of my near-death experiences on a bicycle have involved school buses.
