What's the solution o.p.? Dynamite all those shoulders and start over with a more enlightened road plan? That truck could get by a cyclist FRAPing the asphalt portion of that roadway by putting one set of wheels over the centerline. And I'll bet that's exactly what they do. Doesn't sound like you'll be doing much cycling in SC and maybe that's for the best. You simply don't have the right head for being a vulnerable road user. And that's ok. But I'm hanged if I understand your hysteria. It's as if you think city engineers are going to revisit those roads and make them wide enough. I wouldn't hold my breath.
