I have never lived in a city thyus never experienced the traffic, but countryside traffic is also terrible.
Where I live is full of thin lanes where drivers can overtake and be inches away; even when i am breaking the speed limit for that road it seems to happen- and people wonder why I am so rude to dangerous drivers.
A good example is the other day, I was travelling around 15mph after a long cycle, just coasting down a slight downhill and I was overtaken by a rather impatient boy racer, revving the hell out of his tin can Clio, then instantly afterwards he took a left, causing me to brake suddenly, I spat out at his car hoping he would see and have a go so I could teach him a good lesson, but he just rather cockily drove off.
I'm sick of this, the 1m law should definitely be implemented, i'm telling you, the next pointlessly dangerous or impatient driver is getting a spanner to the windscreen. No joke.
I agree with you on the 1m rule. I was ran off the road by two vehicles with boy racers in last week. This was on a country road also. I've filed a report with the police, but don't hold my breath.

I'm off to see my MP next week.
