Prefer Roads
Bike ride 3 days a week. Prefer to stay off cart paths. Have had many more close calls from carts than cars. Cart drivers appear very impatient.
Generally stay on roads with a cart lane and then in that lane. Even here cart drivers give less attention to passing distance than cars.
When I do go on Buena Vista or Morse, it's never more than 2 - 3 blocks and always early morning. There is not much traffic and therefore no problem with cars easily passing in the left lane. I can pretty much anticipate a doofus driver now that I have some experience.
