[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In response to your comments above, recently I almost got killed by a vehicle that crossed a double line onto my lane because he rounded a curve (50mph zone) and there were two idiots riding bikes in the middle of the two-lane narrow road.  He either took them out or crossed the double yellow line.  He crossed the double yellow line.  I came around the next curve and found him on my lane.  In a split second, it was either take out the spandex jerk-offs to my left, or drive my car into a ditch to my right.  Thank God I had an option, and drove my car into a ditch.  I had no choice.  The bicyclists never stopped, never indicated in any way they almost caused a tragedy, and as far as I know they couldn't have cared less.  They clearly saw my car driven into the ditch, and unless they're brain-dead, they understood what happened.

Now, what is that you're saying about stopping the stereotyping?

It's time to hold them accountable for their extremely irresponsible behavior.[/quote]

I’m no fan of cyclists in general, but the situation you describe is the fault of the driver who ran you off the road. If he needed to swerve into oncoming traffic, it was because he took the corner too quickly to be able to safely react to whatever might have been around the bend.  [/quote]

I’m one of the first posters who now lives close to Persimmon Tree Road where ther are a lot of blind curves. I’ve given the possibility of this exact situation some thought and if it should arise I will take the cyclists out. I have young kids and they are stupid. [/quote]
