 Work - Stupid Drivers
Today was pleasant riding weather but I did have to deal with three stupid drivers. On the way in I was on the frontage road nearly to Ridge Road and a driver passed me into oncoming traffic and forced them to stop. Then I turned onto Ridge Road to cross the cross over I-85 and another driver did the same thing as I came to the stop sign. He didn't have room to pull in to stop, so he pulled in cockeyed and ran the redlight. But he had forced oncoming traffic to stop. On the ride home I was hooked by a Hummer. I was in the bike lane riding up East North Street and the Hummer passed me and cut across my front whell to turn right. He did speed up so it would have been a good collision. Sometimes drivers are really stupid!
