"You’re driving down a busy suburban street when a bicyclist suddenly
raises his arm and weaves out in front of you. You tap the brakes, only
for the bicyclist to change his mind and settle back into his bike lane.
Then, just as you’re speeding up again, he weaves in front of you again.
Are you irritated yet?"

Excellent point:  This will be a huge improvement in road safety for
bicyclists and pedestrians, not just cars.
