I was riding to work yesterday on a 4 lane road with lanes too narrow to share, so I was taking the lane. I'd been riding on the street for several blocks with light traffic (thanks to the holidays ) when I heard someone behind me honking the horn. I looked in my mirror and saw ONE lone car. I kept riding and figured the driver would pull around and pass since the other lane was empty. NO! About 30 seconds later I heard the honking again. This continued for 2 short blocks. Finally I slowed to a stop, turned around to look at the driver, and asked what the problem was. It was some stupid woman. She was talking on her cell phone and probably wasn't aware that there were no other cars around. She realized that we had stopped, pulled into the other lane, and whizzed past me, without missing a word of her phone conversation.

I hate idiot drivers and cell phones
