Same here. It never ceases to amaze me how some drivers will risk a blind head-on collision just to save a few seconds waiting behind a cyclist. I’ve had a few close shaves like that as the motorist coming the other way. I’ve even had drivers swerve out to pass a cyclist when they can actually see me coming in the other direction!
