Is this personal experience? Any chance you got to experience riding in a more curb-hugging position next to this mentally challenged individual?

My best was a pickup truck driver almost taking out a sapling planted in the ~15 foot wide swath of grass on my right which he used to pass me. I had to give him credit for being creative. He came no where near me while making the pass.
