I bet you are also annoyed by pedestrians that want to cross the road and end up slowing you down.


Critical Mass aside. Seriously, how many here have actually been delayed more than 60 seconds by a cyclist or group of cyclist. And even then, most of that time just means you wait for a shorter period of time at the next red light.

Back in the 60-70's, driving in the Rockies; hippies in VW buses delayed motorist far more than any tractor or cyclist. No one was trying to ban them from the road or expecting them to drive into the ditch to get out of others way.
More than 10 minutes going up King's Mountain in Woodside, Ca. No safe place to pass.
