I recognize what I need to do when I'm the motorist, don't even bother with honking the horn, seems to have been uneventful to this stage of my life too.
The problem with that riding position is that it reinforces the notion that cyclists do not have a right to be on the road. And that is just going to cause more problems down the road.
