So if driving a Volvo makes me a biker killer does mean I'm suicidal? Or merely suffering from multiple personalities? :)

About the gaps and bikes filling them, I just wish that drivers would stop being petty and let bikes have the space to avoid jams. When pulling up to a traffic jam I always position myself so that there is *plenty* of space for a bike to go by. And when on a bike and someone does this to me I always thank the driver with a friendly wave (you can guess the wave I give to drivers who pull in my way....)

As far as the worst drivers go, I'd say most drivers of small cars and german car owners (beemers / mercs and worst of all VAG owners). Small cars always seem to be able to take up more room in a lane than 38 ton lorries (and I jest not here!)

Chat later

PS Nice to get a long discussion going again!
