**Actually, I am anti-****wit drivers. Like any other driver, I've been 
inconvenienced by cyclists. I've see cyclists in my own area riding at 
6:00AM (when it is still dark) with NO LIGHTS! It was sheer luck when I
saw 
one guy coming down the road. There was a small amount of reflected light 
from his bike frame. I managed to stop before I pulled out in front of
him. 
OTOH, I recognise the right of cyclists to share the road. Swerving and 
stopping in front of a group of cyclists, then leaving the scene of the 
resulting accident, is not only illegal, but extremely poor form.
