Well, I want to thank you for handling it in a compassionate manner. Many drivers are more put out by the fact their commute increased by 15 seconds because they had to brake than they are by the fact they almost took a human life.

From the cyclists perspective...that sort of thing always puts a scare into me, but sadly it is sort of par for the course. You get used to drivers doing that sort of thing. I don't deal with it quite as much now as I commute out to the suburbs, on partly bike path, rather than further in the center of the city where things are more dicey.

Also...cyclist is asking for trouble by not having lights at night....but my view is it's the responsibility of the person with a ton of steel around them to not kill anyone.
