In the 3 years I've been driving, I've had many close encounters with cyclists, every time because they decided to ride right in the middle of the road where I should be driving. If you want to stay safe as a cyclist, don't ride where the cars should be!!! Stay in your little bicycle lane. And stop thinking you guys are special cases and that traffic lights and signs don't apply to you! I keep thinking about this one time I was making a left from Arlington onto Beacon St.. as I made the left this young bicyclist zoning out on her headphones totally cut me off right in front of me so i slammed my brakes and swerved to not hit her and honked my horn reallyyy loud twice. While stopped at the next light, another unrelated cyclist rode up to me and completely bitched me out about honking my horn at the girl!! Are you serious?????? Get off your high horses and realize that you're riding around in a stupid 50lb piece of scrap metal and I'm driving in a 2000-lb CAR. If you don't respect the car and drive with EXTREME caution, then there will always be accidents on the road.
