Most car/bike interactions are because cars don't want to lose 2 precious seconds of there time. If a bus, tractor or other slow moving vehicle impedes the auto's progress then they are forced to wait for an opportunity to pass. They feel otherwise w/ bicycles as they are no match for two thousand pounds of steel. A car has a brake that requires two inches of foot movement to slow it down. You own a car not the road. Common law requires all vehicles to yield to vehicle in front of you. First came the horse, then the bicycle and then the car. The horse and cyclists work hard with their energy to propel them forward. Don't be so inconvenienced as to jepordize another life to save two seconds. The cyclist will probably in most cases see you at the next light.
