Almost hit by a car...

this morning running. I was crossing 395 heading east on the crosswalk. In the middle of the crossing when an old jeep cherokee pulled up. He did not look either way and pretty much 'gunned it' after rocking out a rolling stop. It was about 6:30 this morning so it was not dark out at all. He didn't even notice he was inches from hitting me until I screamed at him. Ugh. Just wanted to FYI everyone. :shock:

Almost hit by a car......

this morning driving!

A lot of local drivers have apparently decided stop signs are optional or that a last minute stop w/ several feet of their car in the road doesn't constitute a hazard. :angry:

Glad they missed you!

Did you stop at the stop sign? or plow on thru? I've almost hit bikers AFTER I stopped and started to go again and here come the bikes crossing the road with out stopping to see if all is clear.:idontno: Glad you didn't get plowed over though.....😀

That's why my sister and I started beating on hoods. Glad you're okay.
