Great stuff here, many years of empirical data. My two piasters - riding here in New Jersey is a high art in survival. In the towns and cities, riding in the right tire track of your lane will encourage some sh*tbird to squeeze past you and sling you onto the curb or shoulder. We ride in the left tire track mostly, and on open roads you need to switch tracks at random or some jerk will sneak up on your right side and drift you into the opposite lane. ALWAYS lock eyes with drivers - if you can't see their eyes they will surely try some bonehead stunt. Just cause you're paraniod doesn't mean they are not out to get you.
