I've been in that exact same situation when I was about 18 or 19 only I was the car driver.
Looked left, looked right... Pulled out (turning right) only for two cyclists to be "there" on my right, hard on the anchors.
Not only felt a right tit for pulling out on them but scared that I didn't even see them.
I guess the brain does funny things if you are focusing on the wrong part of the road too heavily. Lesson learnt, no harm done.
Didn't even get a load of abuse from the cyclists either. The front runner just put his hands up in a WTF are you doing kinda way.
