Grrr, rant time.
This morning’s ride (commute) consisted of the following:
- Being cut off by the same car twice, 3 blocks from home
- Being cut off by a courier blindly turning right
- Being confronted by a recycling truck coming at me the wrong way through a traffic circle
- Being confronted by a car coming at me in the wrong lane on campus
- Being behind a car that came to a stop at a 4 way stop, and stayed there. I went around her and three blocks later I could still see she was stopped there. The passenger didn’t seem concerned.
So, seriously? A 10 km ride in the gorgeous sunshine and mild temperatures complete and utterly destroyed by idiot drivers.
There are some things I really dislike about Vancouver and the dumbass car (and bike) drivers rate highly.
It took 45 minutes to get across town the other day…and mostly due to construction and dumb drivers totally confused about what to do when the road isn’t straight.
