It was a dark and stormy night... err, morning and well, not really storming, just a drizzle. But it was dark!
To get to work on time, I need to leave no later than 7:10am, but to have less pressure, get there a few minutes early and/or add a mile or two, I like to leave closer to 7. Up until today I had been waiting to leave until about 7:10 so it was just light enough to not really *need* lights. But with the low clouds, fog and mist today, it would not have made much difference. So I left at 7:00 or a little before maybe, lights shining.
All cars passed me safely. But one car figured he would pass me safely and then throw a right hook and try to take me out. I was half expecting it though as it is a street that most cars turn right on. I go straight. I always have less traffic after getting beyond that street. Two cars had passed and taken the right well in advance of me reaching it. A third car passed and went straight. Car number 4 passed and cut right in front of me. I braked and yelled, but doubt he heard anything. Just another close call.
Happy Monday!
