Most drivers on country backroads where I live (Cotswolds, UK) are safe and respectful. The dangerous places are provincial towns/cities - worked and cycled in a large Staffordshire town for six years, it was horrid - and rural A roads, but any decent cycle route planner (ie not GMaps) will keep you off the latter for the most part.
- freehunter 10y agoThe dangerous part is a car coming over a hill or around a bend and not seeing the slow cyclist in front of them until it's too late. Not that the drivers are actively looking to injure the cyclists, but that the speed differential between bicycles and autos leads to terrible accidents.
