I position, I look, I look again, I look a third time, I often don't go around a vehicle b/c it's clear the driver isn't slowing down. But I was trying to get around it and she was not letting me. It was one of those things where as a cyclist you can't start overtaking as long before a vehicle as you would in a car, so I was getting closer and closer to the vehicle and I was in the primary position but just a little too far over, I guess. Still, most drivers give way when that happens. I have a pretty long commute and have to do this regularly, she was just one of those who shaves things closer than she should have.
