While walking to the bus stop the other day I witnessed this exchange between an older guy in a silver car of some sort and a younger woman in a boxy sort of car on Second between Bryant and Brannan. The older guy was still in the process of pulling into a parking space, and the woman pulled up alongside him and rolled down her window to talk to him:
Younger Woman: "Hey, how do you feel about that bicyclist you almost hit there."
Older Man: "I don't see bicyclists."
YW: "You don't see bicyclists? You almost hit someone!"
OM: "I don't see bicyclists."
The man admitted he was not qualified to be behind the wheel of a car, and felt no remorse about almost crashing into someone.
As Stephen Colbert would say, a tip of the hat to the woman who went out of her way to confront the guy, and a wag of the finger to the accident-waiting-to-happen in the silver car of some sort. It's a shame, but perfectly understandable that he's not afraid of any punishment for such callous disregard of the California Vehicle Code. Vulnerable Users law, anyone?
