Eh. Depends where you live maybe. I’ve definitely had plenty of conversations and overheard people with exactly this opinion about cyclists.
For my area the only cyclists anyone dislike are fuckers in packs cause theyre stupid and litigious as fuck. Seriously theyve tried sueing folks for "blocking roads" it was some dudes private road he had made so he could pull into his back yard via either street since his property spanned between the two. There was also an instace where a bunch of them plowed into a motorcycle pulling out of a parking lot, luckily a cop was across the street doing the same so his dashcam caught the guy at the front swerve into the motorcyclist.
So all in all individual bicyclists good, packs of them bad.
