Default Got Run off the road today

Some lady (must of bin drunk looked to be in her 50s) saw her heading for my side of road ( heading for me) slowed down got on right side of road just as she got to me turned right at me,I headed off the road missed me by inches I missed hiting things by inches went in the woods at least keep the bike up dont know how , then she took off didn't even stop I went after her wanted her to stop she tryed to run me off the road again so I just pulled over where people were in there yard didn't know them had to calm down, my old lady was on the back, didn't get the plate # just was to pissed off to think about it
At least we were both OK and so is the bike

Damn man, that's no good. I know its very little consolation but at least you, your OL and the ride are all ok. I've tried runnin someone down after they turned left infront of and I smoked the rear tryin to stop out of panic. At some point, roaring along hoping to stop that @sshole and teach em a lesson just isn't worth it. But I feel ya, and like I said, glad you're ok.

Glad you two are ok. Maybe she is an English teacher, and can spot someone that doesn't use periods.

HA!

Seriously though, glad you are OK. I was at a two turn lane intersection the other day in the left lane. While turning, the driver to my right just comes right over into my lane while turning. I slapped his window before he hit me and he backed off.

Mad skills ... keeping it together after a little impromptu off-roading ....

Glad you're okay ... but, it is tough to tamp down that (justifiable, in your case) road rage ....

Coming up I-95 Friday had a nut job 'merge' into my space while I was still using it ... fortunately I was able to take evasive action ... meant to honk at him but hit the 'high beam' instead ...

Ya, I've high-beemed a few peeps myself. It's that dreaded light-flashing that will make them think twice!

I've wondered if there were a way to relocate the horn somewhere else, but I think right next to your thumb is the best place. Oh well, when I actually DO hit the horn instead of the lights, they'll know I'm there!
