Well said. In fact, probably most of the accidents are with drivers who are just plain ignorant (or inattentive), not trying to be jerks. Articles like this are helpful for the ignorant people (both drivers and cyclists--it seems like most of the other cyclists I see here in town are not following the rules of the road).
