Well, I could be both!
You make a couple good points. I have not been as lucky as ya think. There have been some close calls, and some of them, if not
deliberate, at least gave the motorist a few momentary jollies. Alot of my luck of course, is not that at all...as I said, I am a cautious and courteous rider, which is a rare commodity these days in any roadway user. Never had any problem with that....a 2 wheeled bike is inherently more dangerous and risky than a four wheeled car, and thus anyone riding it should be intelligent enough to adjust his riding style to compensate for those risks.
