You barely survived, you say.
Two weeks ago I was in Italy, in one of the big cities, on a very heavily loaded cargo bike, and I made a mistake in a roundabout. Almost took the wrong exit and corrected too late. No problem — a car driver I cut off seemed to know the mistake before I did and slowed down to make space for me just in case.
If that's worse then the US, then the US must be heaven for cyclists.
