I'm a keen cyclists and mostly hate other city cyclists. Inconsiderate about anyone's safety, totally oblivious to any rules or anything going in around them, arrogant and expecting priority at every point. Never looking before turning. I think some minimum bar should be introduced for cycling on actual roads with cars. Make it an online test, with a certificate. Then police the worst cycling offences. It's like looking after bumbling toddlers. You shouldn't hit them just because they are annoying but they still are annoying.

The worst thing as a driver is having to care about somebody elses life because he doesn't. Trafic at rush hour is bad. Having to take care of a ciclist who overtook you on the right at the street light and who does not care that driving paralel with you is dangerous is even worse.

I bike as my primary transportation, and I get angry at other cyclists on a near-daily basis. I've even yelled "You're the reason people hate bicyclists!" at a cyclist once. It wasn't always like this. A decade ago, bicyclists in my town were actually very good. Then the cops stopped writing tickets to cyclists who broke traffic laws, and things went downhill fast. I wish they'd start writing tickets again. I also drive, and I understand the anger from drivers. But abusing the cyclists does literally nothing to improve the situation. Making a big stink about citing cyclists might.
