This. I reckon this is a major barrier to mass cycling in cities. Even if the speed limits are reduced to 20mph motorists will still get annoyed if you're only cycling at 18mph. This is in addition to the twattish car-cannot-be-behind-bike-as-it's-a-violation-of-the-natural-order-even-if-there's-a-red-light-40m-up-the-road attitude displayed by some drivers.
