Same here.  Drivers on the roads act stupidly a lot - it sounds like 
you're a sensible rider, too.  There are lots of cyclists here in Salt 
Lake City that seem to think they don't have to obey the rules of the 
road - I've seen them blow stop signs/lights, ride on the wrong side of 
the road (or the sidewalks, which is against the law here I understand).

But I also understand that here the driver/owner of the vehicle is always 
considered at fault.  ISTR there was a recent story in the local paper 
about someone on a bike who ran into a *parked* car and the owner of the 
car was found to be at fault, even though the car was properly parked.
