A very vanilla ride into work, weather-wise.

On my street, a car pulled out of its driveway in front of me (didn't see my light I guess.... or didn't care). When the car came to a stop and got out of reverse, I went around the back end and passed it (I was probably doing 15 mph to the car's "0" at that point. I came up to a stop sign a few houses later. One more block before the main road, with a car parked on the right about halfway down, so I took the lane (i.e., ran down the middle of my residential street), planning to pull over to the right after getting past the parked car. I didn't have to; the car that had pulled out of the driveway in front of me STOMPED on the gas after the stop sign and flew by at a pretty good rate of speed, engine still revving, and swerved all the way to the left curb to pass me just as I was alongside the parked car. As she went by, she said somethng at me which I couldn't hear over the roar of the engine.

Now.... I know where this motorist lives; any good ideas for one of those passive-agressive little notes I can leave on her car?

At daybreak I also encountered a bike commuter with no lights who was alternating between being a gutter bunny and using sidewalks (on both sides of the road, as available). Little chance of encountering pedestrians there in the morning but still. I tried to talk to him, "Hey, good morning" kind of thing, but he just road on without acknowledging me after we traveled the same road for about a mile. I think he was putting himself at risk more by jogging back and forth across the traffic lanes to get to the sidewalks than if he had just stayed consistently in the traffic lane.
