Sure, take it for what it's worth. At best, it applies only to the town where I live. Still, the opening anecdote in the article resonated with me because Mercedes drivers around here have shown an unusually small amount of concern for my welfare.
As a cyclist, one tends to be more than usually sensitive to people trying to kill you with their cars. I submit that as the driver of a high-performance luxury vehicle, you may be more than usually sensitive to people driving too slow for your taste.

Another Texan checking in, and I absolutely agree with you (with the addition of BMW and a growing number of Audi drivers). 95% of my travel is by bicycle or motorcycle and in my personal experience this group of drivers is disproportionately less concerned with the safety/welfare of others.
