This is a question Cars

"Here in my car", said 80s pop hero Gary Numan, "I feel safest of all". He obviously never shared the same stretch of road as me, then. Automotive tales of mirth and woe, please.

You on the other hand
www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/DG_070314

should allow as much room for overtaking even one bike as you would for any other vehicle on the road. Now it's true that cyclists shouldn't cycle more than two abreast (http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/TravelAndTransport/Highwaycode/DG_069837 - rule 66), not single file, and any cyclist will tell you that you need to cycle about 1 metre off the kerb in order to avoid the terrible state of the gutters and drainage covers, as well as giving them room to swerve when they are overtaken dangerously quickly.

But my point regarding tolerance is still valid, they are simply having fun outdoors.

i am well aware of what i should be doing
but on narrow country roads, if they aren't doing what they should be doing, then i can't do what i should be doing. they're the ones who could get killed, you'd think they'd play by the rules. they don't. because they're cunts.
