As a bike rider I hate waiting to cross a road or turn for like five minutes cause the cars just keep coming, but it's almost as annoying when a car on a busy road stops to let me through when they could just keep going and be out of my way long before I'd be out of there's. Then I just feel awkward and obligated to speed up. And the ones who stop when I'm not even really close, when they would have had time to go through, pull a U-turn, pull another U-turn, and then cross in front of me again before I even got there... I just don't understand how you could be that mathematically challenged.

Sounds it would've saved the world a lot of trouble.
