You should see how close people get to me in this neighborhood

depends on whether or not the other party can prove you were driving erratically, not giving them enough room, or you were trying to force your way through
in most cases, i think both insurers would pay damages as long as the accident took place on a road like that

i think people are to concerned with the liabilites and the lawsuits than to just fucking drive and let mother fuckers get by and vise versa.

You stop for the other car. It's a give and take the roads are like that here. Don't be an ass hole and side swipe cars because saving 2 seconds is that important.

Actually my neighboorhood is ghettoey and filled with mexicans who fly by you at 20 mph(im guilty of the same)
Half of them probably dont even have insurance.
Luckily ive never hit anyone 
(Oh and this road is by far the widest in my neighborhood, it was just the one i was on when i thought to take a picture. Ill take a pic of the actual streets tomorrow)

if thats the case and they dont have insurance, i would be more careful and drive slower.
even if they don't have the right of way, give it to em anyways slow down, get closer to the edge of the road, and let them pass
other than that, maybe find out where they live and notify INS. i dunno how that works though

That street looks downright roomy to me*. But people are funny, some overcompensate so badly for perceived barriers on the passenger side.
* ETA: I see now this is one of the wider streets.
