Why cyclists make many car drivers angry

Cycling side by side annoys motorists - by the way, this is only permitted by law for racing cyclists in training. Incidentally, these photos were recreated - Miriam and Philip normally always cycle in accordance with the regulations.(Bild: Hannes Wallner)

Cyclists are often annoyed by motorists who don't keep their distance. But what about the other way round: what annoys motorists about cyclists? In addition, "Radkrone" asked a traffic psychologist why many cyclists often take more rights and freedoms for themselves.

"Cyclists disregard all traffic rules", a Lower Austrian loudly expresses his anger to the "Radkrone": "Red lights are ignored, some cycle against the direction of travel through one-way streets or swerve onto sidewalks. But what bothers me the most is when cyclists ride on the road even though there is a cycle path next to it."
