... and I think an approach of "We're sharing this, how can I help?" has been more fruitful than one of "We're fighting for the same space and I'm determined to win".
I'm all for politeness. But riding over to the left in the circumstances of the video would do no-one any favours and is certainly not "polite". It would encourage a dangerous overtake that puts the rider at risk or encourages the driver to perform an illegal manoeuvre.
Note also that the rider in the video ~was~ being polite in moving over to the left as soon as he passed the solid double centre line section.
