I call shenanigans on bright lights.

Some drivers are just that clueless. First time I got hit, I was Tboned by a left turner. She didn't see my front light, or a dorky hi-viz yellow vest. This was also on a well lit street.

Then of course there was a lady who took me out with her mirror. I was making a left turn, signaled, merged to double yellow. She passed me over double yellow and clipped me with her mirror. I still remember her comment "I am so afraid of cyclists, they are everywhere" Then why the hell did you pass me over double yellow, after I signaled and merged to make a left turn?

This wasn't a hit, but still a memorable occasion. Coming back from a ride, a car started to turn left right in to me. I hit the brakes and started looking for escape route. She stopped blocking both lanes at the last minute. I followed her in to a parking lot, first thing she did when she opened her door is started screaming that she stopped. She never did understood what she did wrong, and apparently it was my fault that she ended up blocking both lanes with oncoming traffic. Gee lady maybe you should wait and let all traffic pass before initiating a turn from "suicide" lane?

I am leaving ethnicity out, so FrenchFit won't call me racist again. Although I said "she" so maybe I am sexist now?

P.S. Thanks everyone for well wishes.
