I feel you. I have this most days on the road on which I reside. Double parked cars galore and drivers bomb up and down it. It's a dead end at one end, meaning that only the people who live on the road use it, meaning that most days I get driven at and expected to just evaporate by my NEIGHBOURS. Oh the joys of outer London living...

Two separate head on encounters with entitled rat-run arseholes this evening. First was a big "not quite a LandCruiser" affair going silly fast up a residential road with nigh on nose to tail parking on either side, the driver of which appeared to think meant any remaining road was for his exclusive use. Quite a windy one, that. Second was less intense but again driver expected oncoming cyclist to become two-dimensional so as not to impede their progress. Is this the new normal? A bus also pulled out on me while I was overtaking but that was fun because I got to do a sweet little skid to tuck in behind him, so it wasn't all bad.
