I don't know what it is with a number of motorists and their not like having a cyclist riding in the roadway. Just yesterday, I took the lane to pass an obstruction in the bike lane that I was riding in and a motorist, who was over a block behind me, accelerates his vehicle and closes the gap to two feet, then weaves back and forth in the same travel lane while still tailgating me at a distance of two feet, and then slowly passes me after I return to riding in the bike lane after passing the obstructed portion of the bike lane.
This is not even close to the first time that I felt like I'm waving a red cape in the middle of a bull ring when taking the lane.
