I'm really glad that you were there @
jaxgtr. I can imagine that in the same situation -- as a driver -- I would have been really shaken up. As a woman confronted by an unstable man, the fear would be compounded. I'm glad you didn't leave her there to deal with it on her own.
I hope that kid grows up and soon. He's angry. I hope he's not also mentally ill, but as [MENTION=20397]cale[/MENTION] pointed out, it sounds like that might be the case. We have a fair number of homeless guys on bikes around here. They often ride ninja while salmoning up busy roads in the dark. I know some of these guys personally because of some volunteer work I do. I have often wondered if their dangerous behavior on the bike is the expression of a self-destructive impulse. It makes me incredibly sad for them, fearful for the drivers who might encounter them, and angry that we don't have a better social support structure for the mentally ill.
