I feel that since I started commuting to work by bike about 10yrs ago, I became a much better driver. I'm more patient/tolerant of others on the road, and I pay more attention to what I'm doing and what's happening around me.
I often wonder that if all drivers had to to spend one month per year commuting on a bike, how much the average standard of driving would improve.
