You sound like you're a part of the problem. A rant about clothing, and motorists are "rational in hating cyclists", because "10-20% of them are assholes"?

- fxtentacle 5y agoWell, when I drive my bicycle, I usually look like a regular person and I drive on the bicycle lane. And it seems no car driver feels bothered by that. If we want car drivers to be less angry, maybe it makes sense to stop doing what makes them angry. Also, there is plenty of bicyclists who have a strong reaction towards car drivers, because they had bad experiences in the past. I think 10% asshole ratio is enough to train people to subconsciously expect the worst, even if it is still statistically unlikely.
