Maybe its just spring or people have more going on than normal. My wife actually had a lady clip her on Elbow Drive in a school zone where she was keeping up with traffic, and told her it was intentional, and she "knew she wasn't going to hurt her"
Just wondering what you are all experiencing out there. We cycle a lot, a lot on city roads and follow the protocols of "being in traffic". People just seem more on edge.

I hope you reported the lady on Elbow Drive to the police.
