My commute before retirement at one point had me on a 2 lane heavily trafficked road with many parked cars, so limited shoulder. For about a half mile I had to take the lane and often had to listen to cars honking at me to get out of the way. Clearly American drivers have no interest in sharing a road with others. I know had they been stuck behind a slow moving construction vehicle they would not have been horn blowing. General feeling among car drivers is bikes do not belong and cars have right of way. I ended up researching a slightly longer route thru local residential neighborhoods. I still had a hairy 1/2 mile in a 4 lane road with no shoulder, where cars did 50 in a 30 zone and all I could do was hammer this section as well as take enough of the lane so as to not get clipped. I don’t miss it.
