The first part of this is true, although categorizing all motorists as "morons" is far from the truth. The second part is impossible but sadly is the attitude of most cyclists. Hopefully some day they'll learn before they legislate us all off the roads.

I guess I could agree that I often see cyclists riding at the very edge of disaster, though this statement reeks of exaggeration and victim mentality. Perhaps it's the cyclists that need to change their habits and not the motorists (not saying that some can't use some improvement).
