Had someone zip past me way too close taking off from a traffic lights on my way in this morning - guessing they didn't like me stopping in front of them at the lights and sitting in primary - which was totally necessary as there was a van parked at the side of the road after the crossing.
Car stopped at the next lights, no one between me and them, well, you know what, I'm not going to shout and scream at them, let's just try being very polite and friendly. "Good morning! Just wanted to let you know you passed me way too close back there - it's pretty scary for us when people do that". She replies "oh I do apologise, hope you are ok, I'll be more careful in the future".
Hahaha did she ****. She just got all defensive and mouthy at me coming up with nonsense about how I should have been looking behind me when she passed or something how it wasn't that close at all I'm just exagerrating. I just say "look, I don't mean to ruin your day before it's even begun, I just wanted to let you know that you should give at least three feet when passing which honestly you didn't do". Yack yack yack lights turn green I ride off.
I dunno. At least she didn't come out with the cliches.
