As someone who regularly drives a large vehicle, I find it amusing how big a berth folks in little cars give. If my box truck can make it you don’t need to cut half way into the next lane in your Fiat.
It because they’re bracing themselves with the steering wheel when doing a very exaggerated shoulder check.
My driver training course explicitly brought this up, but presumably not everyone took driver training.
But I don’t think that’s what they’re talking about, I think they mean that little cars who give an enormous berth between their car and obstacles, so they end up taking up as much of the road as a large car would
You are correct that’s what I mean. Little cars passing parked cars, rubbish on the road, or bicyclists in the bike lane going half way, or more, into the oncoming lane to avoid it.
Mother fucking idiot 18 wheeler drivers sway out of lanes all the time. I do appreciate you being aware though. Some of those folks shouldn’t even drive a 10 ft box truck.

Are you talking about those motherfuckers that turn a little to the opposite direction before turning? I fucking HATE that shit.
uhm that’s counter steering and actually helps you reach the apex of the corner quicker.

The motherfuckers who do this take said turn at like 2km/h, they’re not racing at all

It only takes one bike to wobble as you pass or one baby cart coming unexpectedly out behind the obstacle to imprint the need to give wide clearance
Quickest line and far easier to not hit those rims. You might not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.
