Dear me...

What IS the matter with cyclists at the moment?

It's as though they've all been taken over by something really nasty.

Nothing matches the road rage of car and van drivers, which is getting

'We’re a snippy, short-tempered lot. Road rage statistics continue to
rise, though it isn’t really a new thing. A State Farm survey last year
found one in three drivers self-reported engaging in road rage-ish
behaviour, most commonly triggered by tailgaters and distracted drivers.'

State Farm is a well-known American insurance company (apparently
operating also in Canada, judging from your link).

I am not aware that they operate in the EU.
