I don't ride this route, can anyone confirm/deny out of the ordinary traffic problems?

I always get stuck behind some jackass who's half asleep at the wheel doing 15 KM/H under. Previously, I'd have the option of passing him and being on my merry way so he could go about being an obstacle on his own time.
Now I don't have that option. That's why I find them a pain in the ass. Increase cycling capacity, sure, but don't do it at the cost of motorists. We're still a "driver's city" due to our sheer size, no amount of bike paths will change that.
