So I'm on a bicycle ride up a fairly busy road. I have ridden this road many times with no problem. I usually ride the shoulder.
There is a red light ahead (maybe 20 meters) so the traffic is stacking up. Good for me as it makes a left onto the back road a lot easier.
Suddenly an SUV goes blowing by me. He sees the traffic slams on his brakes and makes a quick right into a driveway, narrowly missing slamming into the house.
If I was less than one minute faster I would have been in that driveway and most likely be toast. I'd bet dollars to donuts the moron was texting while driving. I can't see how he did not see the traffic light or the traffic until the last minute.
