I don't know why some older people feel like they are exempt from rules.
I ride my bike, alot. I run/walk alot. I am stupidly cautious because I don't trust peeps.
While I am riding/running in my neighborhood, I don't always stop at signs but I slow, I make sure no cars are coming. But there are areas where I do not have a stop sign. Now I still slow down at cross streets because again...I trust no one.
I had an older woman blow through a stop sign going about 35 in a 20. She didn't even try to stop. I did NOT have a stop sign. I was paying attention and slammed on my bike brakes. I popped off my seat and clanked my teeth together. This b**ch had the nerve to roll down her window and yell at me.
I'm sorry, you ran a stop sign and almost hit me. She said "I'm a car and always have the right of way"
DA FUQ?!?!?!
Then like a day or two later I was LITERALLY run off the road. An older woman in an oversized SUV wasn't paying attention (on her phone). As I turned right, she blew through a stop sign on the street I was turning onto. I saw her at the last second and jerked my wheel to the right. I hit the curb and fell off my bike. SHE DIDN'T F**KING NOTICE! She was so distracted she also jumped the curb about a foot in front of me, barely missing me and my bike.
She never stopped. Honestly if she would have hit me she wouldn't have noticed. A man walking his dogs saw me and was like "OMG are you ok?!" Thankfully I was since I fell in the grass but HOLY $HIT!
And this was in broad daylight! You couldn't miss me or my hot pink tank!
I know drivers have always sucked but I swear more and more recently people are so incredibly reckless and are quick to blame anyone but their careless selves!!!!!!
