First, some goofball in a truck nearly ran me over in the crosswalk on my way to the bike (I was already wearing my day-glo yellow helmet!). Two minutes later, some lady in an SUV (talking on her phone) ran the 4-way stop and missed me by about 2 ft. A mile down the road a gal in a white Nissan pulled out of a parking lot right into my lane. Thankfully, that street has a bike lane, which was the only collision-free escape route. For the rest of the ride home, I was eyeing all the other drivers like they were suspected serial killers
Sadly, that must be the norm for every ride, in order to survive these days.
