Glyn;
We have the same trouble in DFW. As a rule I like to travel some of the backroads to get home and more times than I can count I have crested a hill or come out of a blind turn to see a pack of these idiots fanned out across the ENTIRE roadway. Sooner or later, somebody is going to get killed and I doubt it is going to be the guy in the car/truck. I especially adore the ones who form a pack of 30 or so and get on narrow 2 lane roads so that they can block traffic for MILES behind them in a no pass zone. In our area we have built bike specific paths and 'rideways' for these guys that are almost always vacant while the FM's and country roads are cluttered. Maybe that arse Clarkson has a point......
