Opposite side of same coin-- A few decades ago, I used to race bicycles. Accordingly, that meant lots of miles on roads both spinning solo or training rides with a group. I/we never pulled the entitlement chit I see most lycra-clad wanna-be's doing as mentioned above.

Conversely, I have lots of stories of nearly getting nailed by a cars pulling out in front of me, either intentionally/blindly or underestimating my approach speed, or passing me and then immediately making a right hand turn with me on their hip. One a-hole did that to a good friend of mine, putting him up against the side of their car and then rolling down his window to flip-off my friend after making the turn. The bad news was that my bud was a former Marine, an Olympic class sprinter and the light turned red at the next intersection. Somebody got their head pulled out of their ass after passing same through the window.

People yakking on cell phones nowadays add to the mix. I still ride a few times a week but about 9 months of the year are on a very nice mountain bike on single-track trails, sans cars....
