The point is that they are slowed down the way it is (a few seconds)
while they look for clearance in the adjacent lane. What this does is
only MANDATE that they give PROPER, SAFE DISTANCE to cyclists.

If we wanted to compensate for that slower speed (if any) all we would
have to do is BAN THE STUPID PHONES that have no place in driving.
