Haven't noticed an excess here. But the first sunny weekend if the year tends to pull a lot of group rides out and inexperienced riders stop riding as individuals and develop a herd mindset. You get the same thing with pedestrians where they cross the road without looking "because everyone else is crossing".

A big problem here on the flatlands is low bright sun behind you in the late evening when many of us are riding home from summer club meets. The oncoming genuinely cant see you and makes assumptions about what it can't see.
I tend to keep away from the centerline in those conditions

The thing is to deal with what people do not what they "should" do and allow for them as far as possible
