I'm beginning to think that unfortunately a number of motorists just don't give a hoot about what cyclists think. But it's just not the motorists/cyclists issue. It's more about "you're completely wrong if you have a different perspective than I do"-and it comes out even stronger if the opposite perspective impacts the other person--like slows them down a little on the road. I hate to be negative, but while the article was very factual made a number of good points it was way too long to keep the targeted audience's attention. While we can easily relate to the article, I fear a lot of motorists just can't or will not allow themselves to relate. Dang, am I ever the negative ninny today!! Must be the afteraffects of the pickup that intentionally buzzed me today!!! Going by appearances of the driver and the pickup I doubt he could even read a newspaper article!!!!
