Pretty much yeah. You should see what drivers do... I almost took out someone's car on my bike because she pulled out right in front of me--with me going 30mph--in front of a cop (parked in the driveway across the street). I had to swerve into the next lane (oncoming traffic) to get around her car--my bike can't stop that fast, and the front tire will skid if I try (I've skid my tire on dry pave, had to ground kick to keep the bike up).

The cop didn't see anything because he was busy playing Angry Birds.

On my bike I'm as maneuverable as other cyclists. In my car I can stop faster, and failing that I can just roll over them. You have no idea how very small the difference is when someone crests a steep hill riding the wrong way against traffic on their bike. I swear I'm going to start grabbing these people and giving them cycling jerseys that say "Future Speed Bump" and "Future Hood Ornament" if they don't get on the right side of the road
