Mind you, it’s the best feeling in the world when you are able to cycle past lanes of gridlocked traffic!

But I think if someone is going to complain about road congestion, they need to consider their own contribution to their problem. I really don’t care about the seething masses gridlocked on urban tollways either, but I do care when their self-made frustration is taken out on other road users, and this is the more-or-less the starting point of Urban Commuter’s entry:

Some drivers appear to maintain whatever illegal speed they are obliviously trundling along at, regardless that they also have to safely pass a cyclist somehow, within a tight & hazardous urban landscape.

I’d also note that “celebrity” opinion-makers and other people who actually possess more than one brain cell—eminent economists, for instance—are not immune from this stunning lack of insight. And it don’t make the roads any safer for anyone.
