This is the stuff that leaves me feeling down about bicycle commuting.
There is no defense against imbeciles in cars.
They are out there. We've all had our close calls.
Scary stuff.
Glad she didn't get you.
Very close call this morning. I'm riding in the middle of an 8 foot wide shoulder. Speed limit is 50 mph. Suddenly there is a black F150 blowing by me about 6 inches away then pulls back into the lane.
Amazingly, I caught up to the truck at the next red light 1/4 mile away, skidded to a stop, pounded on the hood and began to yell at the boneheaded lady driver who seemed more interested in sanding her nails.
She actually had the nerve to say "Well, there is a sidewalk."
The Adrenalin rush and let down destroyed the rest of my ride.
