I leave lots of space when I overtake, if I can't see whether there's anything coming the other way I wait rather than squeezing past, if there's a bollard in the middle of the road I wait and I never get too close.
Cyclists can equally be f**king annoying though. One of my main irritations is being overtaken on the inside when in slow traffic meaning I have to spend ages getting past again - cyclists should have to overtake on the right just like everybody else. It's dangerous. You don't expect them to be there, and in my opinion not should you have to. Respect works both ways in my opinion. I give you space, you give me space. Simple.
I'm sure it's the same both ways, there are a few c**ts in cars that give drivers a bad name and a few c**ts on bikes that give cyclists a bad name.
