Not sure how best to handle this one very wide lane two cars wide, but invariable cars parked on one side near the roundabout at the end.
I need to be towards the right to go straight on at the round about, but if I go too far right I get the impatient motorists undertaking me along the long stretch without parked cars in their rush to get to the back of the inevitable traffic queue , if I stay to the left theres no way in heck Im going to be able to pull out round the parked car safely, or get to my right lane to go straight ahead at the roundabout.
Heres a couple of examples of whats happening to me, bear in mind this round about is invariably blocked solid, they stand nothing to gain at all from their actions... The road leaving the round about is also jammed for ages afterwards... Not sure what to do here...

The last one was last night and I left some of the waiting times on the end of the footage to show how little there was to gain by overtaking the cyclist...
Didnt notice any aggression from the driver, and when he eventually overtook half a mile later when we got to a lower traffic part of the route he did so leaving a very decent amount of road space, so no grudges held, just not sure what to do to help these motorists not make silly ill thought out decisions...
