Just this morning, a woman slowly crept into the bike lane and was not turning or anything, just not paying attention. I slapped my open palmed hand against her rear quarter panel, she got back in her lane and waved. I waved back. Before I read any of the other threads, I would have been cursing and throwing fingers, but would have defeated why we ride in the first place. See what I mean? I do the best I can with the roads and laws, but if someone is going to hit you, they're going to hit you.
Great post and the right attitude. +1000.
