I'm always checking out the people inside the cars to see if they are looking at me and if that's affecting what they are about to do. I do this because I've ridden bikes/motorcycles in C. London for tens of thousands of miles and I'd like to be able to carry on without serious injury.
I also drive a car and a van and I don't recognise myself in the stereotypes for behaviour in the different categories, but I don't doubt that I've annoyed or or caused minor inconvenience to many people in the years driving in London just by being on the roads.
@lynx As miro_m said "I'm sorry you feel that way" Which I've said to a few motorists over the years because of their opinions/actions towards bikers.
I do have a list of stereotypes pegged for certain behaviour that I dislike though, and some pet hates, so no different from everyone else really.
Good point. I've always thought that the roads would be a much nicer place if all motorists were able to drive convertibles. The removal of that communication barrier would make a lot of difference in my opinion. Whether I am cycling or driving, I tend to just see 'cars', not the actual people within them.
