Sorry, you're the one missing the point. Motorists tell cyclists to
use facilities provided (paid from their "road tax", whatever that
is), even if useless, dangerous or don't go where the cyclist wants to
go.

I clearly am missing that particular point, as it's nothing I've ever
done or would ever dream of doing.

I would obviously recommend that cyclists take reasonable precautions to
keep themselves as safe as reasonably possible, because there are some
pretty awful drivers around (me included).

That's a different matter to drivers demanding that cylists using the
roads perfectly legally should not be there.
