I only ride in the city and I found the drivers to be better than before .Sure there is more traffic butindot even recall the last time something happened between me on bike a driver.
Oh actually a few weeks ago some minicab guy wanted to share the bike lane with me but a bit of bird waving on both sides diffused a very mild situation.
But even before that I don't recall any problems. I also like the additional bike lanes being out in. They are not ideal but are great for kids and family type rides .For the faster riders, they are a lot slower .
I pretty much respect the drivers and they (I hope) respect me.
