Yesterday I was nearing the middle of an intersection after the light turned green when a 20-something idiot on a bicycle wheeled past on the right, then cut between me and the car in front and made a left turn, not two feet from the front bumper. He was gone before I could honk.
I would have hit him with the left fender and bumper had I not slammed on the brakes and stopped. He sped on up the cross street.
As I started up again, I saw flashing red and blue lights in the mirror. Ha! The SUV immediately behind me turned out to be the cops. They took off after him, siren blaring.
I wanted to turn left at the first opportunity and circle back, but the next intersection was piled up with cars turning left, so I dropped it.
The idiot had to have passed the cops before he passed me but didn't notice or didn't care.
Gee! Maybe the poor guy was blind.
