Dear Mr. Car
A bicycle has the same rights as a car. Please bear this in mind when:
1) You make a left hand turn at a light and a bike is coming straight through the light. The bike does have the right of way just like a car.
2) When you are riding behind me and the traffic is stopped at a light and you are beeping at me because I am slowing down to stop at the light and you want to be one car in front of me even though the light is still red and you have no place to go.
3) You decide to make a right hand turn and do not signal and I almost crash into the back of you.
4) You decide to go from the left hand lane to the right hand lane and almost hit me. You wave to me to apologize for almost hitting me, but somehow I do not think that absolves you of poor driving.
Your Friendly neighborhood bicyclist.

LOL. Right and left hooks are my pet peeves with motorists. I also love the idiot behind me honking his horn - where does he expect me to go? Be careful out there, they issue drivers' licenses to people who are in the bottom quartile of the IQ scale.
ReplyDeleteand to add to your list....you cannot wait 4 seconds following me up a short hill on a two-lane country road and so you jump the double yellow centerline only to meet the car coming up the other side. Guess who goes into the ditch to avoid a crash? (my adventure of the day today)
