Anecdotally, the number of car drivers that have the miniscule intelligence required to foresee that overtaking me would yield zero benefit at extreme risk is 0.


The extreme risk to them is zero. If they run you over their insurance goes up, and they can complain to their friends about how some "hipster, commie, hippie biker" was in the wrong for even being on the road.

I know someone that was run over by someone that ran a red light. Her arm was broken, and the lady in the car was in the wrong. The lady that hit her had the gall to call her up later and complain to her that her auto insurance rates had gone up. No shit! You run a red light and hit someone, what do you expect?
