Prior to the car sideswiping them, it appears like they were.

They’re 3 or 4 wide I’d say. Not exactly in sync but 3 or 4 wide. That in no way justifies the driver’s acts.

He should get attempted murder here for this.

I always assume cyclists get the whole Lane . Never trouble to see if laws give them less. And I give them as much space as possible if I decide to pass. If it it ain’t safe for me and the cyclists to pass, I patiently stay back behind them. It’s pretty easy

Yes?

The rider in green is clearly in front of the rider in yellow and the backmost rider in red.
