I take it you don't often ride a bike, John... I've had plenty of occasions where a driver has looked right at me, with full eye contact, and then pulled out anyway, knowing I'll have to stop or get injured; "might has right".
Not to mention the "simply didn't look" scenario the teflonpete mentions; I watch drivers, not their car, to see what they might do, so I see when they don't look.
Both situations are rare, but not rare enough.
