That's the nature of the internet I'm afraid. You have to take my word for it or dismiss me as a liar. No skin off my nose either way.
There was no conversation. The woman and her bicycle were in a blind spot behind parked vehicles. The true distance - my best guess anyway - was around 15-25 yards. We weren't even close.
Yes, I could have and should have slowed down a little more at the yield line. No question there. But her reaction was comical. I've been on the other side of careless driver mistakes hundreds of times and don't react the way the MLSers react. I know people make mistakes and cut them lots of slack. But for the MLS, it's a moral outrage that I was talking on my cell phone, and it's a moral outrage that I failed to remember there's potentially an entitled low-carbon-footprint bicyclist behind every parked vehicle.
You're actually the one that seems so outraged that someone pointed out that you broke the law. You were so angry that you started this thread to complain about Major League Soccer(MLS).
This morning I received an angry finger-wagging from a fit middle aged woman on a bicycle. She had a mannish short haircut and, of course, was obediently wearing her bicycle helmet.
I stopped right there. Couldn't get through your second sentence without hateful, stereotyping rhetoric could you?
I happen to enjoy the MLS and it is raising in poularity. The Seattle Sounders are my favorite team.
