Badger, could you not consider modifying your route abit to avoid that area?
For all the different cycling commuting routes I had to ride..because I've worked for different employers in 2 different cities, I have modified some routes which might be an extra 1-3 kms., just to avoid a consistently dangerous area involving road cars. Then I stick to the modified route and adjust my personal schedule accordingly.
My life / not to become permanently disabled, is much more important to me. (I worked for a hospital for spinal cord injured patients for a few yrs. before I restarted cycling several years later. These patients became permanently wheelchair bound for life. The experience is a tremendous reminder to myself....)
besides you get abit more exercise.
