Wow close one.
#1
Ok so I go for a ride, stop at the dealers to check on my new bike, then decided to go visit my brother for a cup of hot tea. Jump on freeway, go west about 20 miles and peel off on my brothers exit. The exit is a 1 lane right hand curve, a little straightaway, then opening up to 3 lanes curving to the left. To go different directions where it meets the State Rt.

So I sweep thru the right hander a little over 50 mph and straighten up for the straight away. Ahead of me cars are dodging..and then I see why, there is a car coming straight DOWN the entrance ramp at 50 mph. I dodge right and get on the brakes hard. He goes past me on the left, and I look in the left rear view. Now the cars behind me are dodging, and he is not hitting his brakes at all. Don't know what he did when he hit the ( for him) left hand curve at the bottom and found himself facing 3 lanes of oncoming freeway traffic.

I didn't hear any crash noises and continued on to my brothers house thankful that things worked out for me this time, and hopeful that things worked out for the wrong way driver as well.

Ride safe out there!
