the proverbial farm that is. I was vehicle #3 tooling down a 4 lane street, #1 & #2 are in the left lane. #1 decides to slow to turn left , #2 decides he doesn't want to wait so he starts to switch to the right lane with no signal. You guessed it I'm in the right lane about half way past #2. A short toot on the horn and he screeches back into the left lane nearly slamming into #1 and he lays on the horn - to me or #1 I'm not sure.
After I pass he yanks out in to the right lane (again no signal) and speeds up. I thought he was going to ram me. Being right at my work place I turn right (using my signal) and pull into my work's parking lot and he follows me into the lot - again without a signal.
Now our parking lot is long and narrow, a lane in and a lane out, clearly marked IN and OUT with signs and arrows. I have to tool around about 2/3rd's of the way around to find a parking spot. Good ol' #2 sits there just inside the IN lane. I park and dismount.
Now, get this' he BACKS OUT INTO TRAFFIC and pulls into the OUT lane (need I say, with out signals again) so he can aim his car at me and pull up so's the drivers window faces me. I'm just standing there pulling gloves and helmet off getting ready to enter the building watching this incredibly stupid dude pulling up towards me.
I don't know if this was his original intention, or his wife in the passenger seat talked some sense into him, or the sight of me (6', 290lbs) scared him, but he pulled up and said, "Sorry man I didn't see YOU switch lanes till you blew your horn". I am taken aback a moment and respond "OK, glad there wasn't an accident". He backs out the OUT drive into traffic again and takes off.
I don't know if I should laugh or thank my lucky stars the old coot (
) didn't jump out and throw down. What a world!!
