But to demonise one whole group of people for the bad behaviour of the relatively few I can observe is not only poor evidence but is a divisive and unhelpful thing to do. And does nothing to improve transport or civil life except maintain animosity.

Yes, but possibly more ! than ?.
The recurrent inability to type s, o, m and e in that order on a keyboard wrecks the quality of discussion.

The lanes are very narrow in places and only just wide enough for a car.
This morning I was cycling in one of the most narrow parts of my route where it is only just wide enough for a car. A car came up behind me and there was nowhere for me to pull over so I kept cycling to a wider part of the road where I would pull over.
While cycling at this point the car driver started hooting and continued to do so, probably for 10 or 12 times. I pulled over to let the driver past when I could.
What are cyclists rights in this situation?

I might take up the challenge and do a count. If there is 51% offending I will accept that a majority is guilty at that particular junction. I do accept that almost everyone is greater than the majority and that Cyril wisely used the term he did.
Many years ago - like about a half a century or more - ok was taught two words/phrases I should be very careful about using; "You always..." and "You never..." Both are likely to be inaccurate.
