On the morning after the incident, someone I know spoke with me, & asked if I remembered a previous conversation, about 'an individual', who if he carried on as he did "Would Kill Someone"
Sady, they were prophetic words

Another rider has been killed in almost the same place
Quite close to where we live
I heard about this at work this AM, & actually had dealings with the (arrested) driver
