Fuck your convenience. No one needs to be considerate of you because you're in a rush to get somewhere, or because you otherwise want the road all to yourself. Do you know what I've done when a bicyclist was in front of me and I couldn't safely go around them? I waited until I could. My world did not end, one cyclist lived to bike another day, and everyone lived happily ever after.
You're not being anything but a dick. If not enough roads have bike lanes, we obviously need to implement more of them. If people think bicyclists should go fuck themselves because they're full of themselves, fuck them. No one owns the road, not drivers, not bicyclists, not pedestrians, but we all get to use them together. They're there for transport, and we're all entitled to getting around, no matter our means.
This sort of entitlement is bullshit, and is exactly why we're too Goddamn forgiving when it comes to fatalities on the road.
