Crazy Drivers
Posted May 14th, 2008 by strongtrainer
Watch out if you ride near Post and Maxwell. I have had 3 people pass me on Post (between Maxwell and Indiana) in two rides. I was following all laws and they passed me in the suicide lane the guy today in a green van I think passed me the 5th when I did my practice run to work and back. I would like to give him a copy of the Bicycle Laws brochure but he would probly throw it in my face. Just a minuet or so before that I was in the right lane on Maxwell headed East and it's 4 lanes there when a driver honked a long honk. I looked over my shoulder there was No One in the Left inside lane! I signaled and move to the Left to prepair to turn Left on to Post and with a quick look saw there was no one behind the man either! He could have passed I wasn't holding up traffic. I was trying to quess why the honk when he shouted "Get on the sidewalk where you belong!" and I said "I'm susposed to be on the street." He must not read any of the local papers or watch any news channel or listen to the radio. He was so unaware... Some one should give that poor man a bike!
