In Cambridge it's luck of the draw. The native drivers typically are quite cooperative (freudian auto-correct, it thinks I'm trying to type copulative) & aware of cyclists but the immigrant drivers are usually blind to everything including cyclists.

That aimed at me? if so no. As a general rule non-British nationals are easier to deal with, more polite, friendly & helpful than their local counterparts, I just have found the bus drivers have a little... erm.. care free attitude to road safety.
