As a car driver and recreational motorcycle driver; I'll drive in my car, it's dangerous to drive a bike in heavy traffic? Also, I'll give bikers all the space, they're very vulnurarble.

I agree, I avoid traffic as much as humanly possible. I never ride in high traffic times.

I also agree on space, but it seems to be a game of how close someone can get to me without hitting me, and how many cell phones they can hold up, in addition to all the other distractions. I give bikers all the space they need, but it's not me they need to be worried about. It's all the other boneheads.

Its dangerous to ride. Period. So you might as well get to your destination faster.
