This morning a young woman in a Ford Explorer tried to pass me on a small neighborhood street. The street was one of those narrow ones that's really about 1 1/2 lanes--just being out of the doorzone puts you in the middle of the lane. I was in the center of the lane and doing about 18 when she tried to pull around. She pulled up alongside of me when she noticed that I wasn't slowing, I wasn't ceding her the center of the lane, and that she was about to crash into a triangular curb. So she hit the brakes, I went through the intersection, and then she followed around me. As she went by, I gave her the international "WTF?" gesture but I noticed she very deliberately avoided looking at me. Nice.
