what's the purpose of this poll?

the purpose is to purpetuate helemt heads' "nervous nellie, the the sky is falling" bicycling hysteria;

where he tries to convince riders they should be in the center of the lane to slow down overtaking cars, on quiet, country roads with good sight lines, EVEN roads like this one.....


helemt head appears to be a hysterical, fearful bicyclist intent on fearmongering his pet 'fear from the rear' exageration and obsession.
