Default Gormless non-motorbike commuters

I dunno what happened. I had such a wonderful, retard free ride home yesterday. Then this morning the road was full absolute tools. Like the muppet on a bicycle jumping the red light cutting across me when I was committed to the turn, I beeped him, but still had to straighten up, use up all my saftey margin and nearly ended up in the oncoming lane.

Then the range rover so close behind me on the embankment that if he'd wanted to get any closer you'd need lube. When it split into two lanes for some lights he went gunning it past me about a foot from my rear wheel, almost into the back of the car at the back of the queue. Not sure what he was hoping to achieve, because I sauntered past him in the CLEAR left hand lane and was 15 car in front of him without filtering. I think he must be related to Agy's ragey driver.

It seems to come in waves, last week every time I was filtering every car seemed to close in - yesterday masses of room down the middle. Thinking about it maybe if cars in front are close to the center line all the ones behind follow suit & vice versa?
