Road Rage on a Bicycle?
Yesterday the family and I went out to get away from the 4 wall hotel room. It was nice to stretch the legs outside and leisurely walk around.
On our way back to the hotel on Broadway street, I witnessed something I never thought I would.
Waiting on the red light to change, we sat in the second to last right lane. The farther right lane turns to the right. A guy on a Bicycle was cruising in front of us from the left side to the right. A car on the farther right lane started to make a right turn. The guy on the Bicycle approached him and I could tell was screaming "GO! GO! Go!" Well the car didn't just go. It stopped halfway in the turn in front of the path of the bicyclist. That evidently infuriated the guy screaming Go, because he nearly stopped and literally tried to hit the back of the car with his hand screaming obscenities. The car finally moved along away from the screaming guy on the bike. Then to add to the comical scenario, another guy in a van in the other street screamed at the 'mad bicyclist'. Probably to chill out. The bicyclist responded with a finger.
What the heck is up with some people? Perhaps a bad day? But in a logical setup, the car could had backed into the guy and creamed him easily enough. Unreal, but somewhat amusing.
