I see far more bonehead drivers than bonehead cyclists. Lately it's been pea-brained buttheads cutting across in front of city buses 5 times the size of their vehicles to make right turns that THEY JUST COULDN'T WAIT A FEW SECONDS to make.
I did see a butthead cyclist today when I was out with the dogs. There is an area in the place where I walk them that is supposed to be off-limits to bikes: there are signs, although it's possible to miss them. The guy came past us from behind, which got the dogs upset, and I called after him (not rudely), "You're not supposed to ride your bike through there." He yelled back "You're not supposed to walk your dogs there." Which is absolutely NOT true, and the area is in fact a very popular spot for people to take their dogs. He was an aggressive jerk who happened to be on a bike. I'll bet he's the same in a car.
