should be ok to ram cyclists, it should even be a law that it’s ok in her
view. Yep that’s who has licenses to drive in this state
folks. I commute 20 miles each way to work and have been doing so for
about 5 years now. It’s much worse in places like <st1:City w:st="on">Saugus</st1:City>
or <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Revere</st1:City></st1:place> when
you’re the only cyclist on a road. In <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City
w:st="on">Boston</st1:City></st1:place> if a car purposely tries to scare you,
there is a chance you can catch him or at least get his plate number. Out
here people come too close go too fast and sometime purposely try to scare me
and then race off. Nothing I can do even if they mow me down like
this lady believes it’s her right to do. This happens on <st1:Street
w:st="on"><st1:address w:st="on">Lincoln Rd</st1:address></st1:Street> in <st1:City
w:st="on">Lynn</st1:City> and <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Revere</st1:City></st1:place>
for example. I for one yearn for gas prices to hit 15 dollars a
gallon. That way, jerks like this lady can’t drive a machine that
can easy kill someone or <i><span style='font-style:italic'>worse</span></i>.
The <i><span style='font-style:italic'>worse</span></i> is if a car hits me and
I’m paralised my wife’s life and my child’s life is also
ruined when the bank takes our house. What a miserable lady.
I don’t care what cyclist cut her off or anything else that a cyclist did
to piss her off, it doesn’t give her the right to ruin someone’s
life. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
