Out in the wild west, people carry guns. And they aren't always mentally stable (the people, not the guns .) AND - sad to say - bicyclists incur (some) drivers' wrath for various reasons. As hard as it is, I try to let it go.

It ain't right & it ain't fair. In Arizona, hurting a cyclist costs you $500 fine. If you kill them, it's $1,000. Poaching carries a bigger fine. Sigh...

Many years ago (like 15), I did chase somebody into a parking lot once who intentionally cut me off. I yelled at him that he could have killed me. He yelled back that I could have scratched his car. Then he went into the store. I called the cops & insisted that they come out (my last name resonates with law enforcement because DH is an ex-cop and a known pain in the butt). The cop did absolutely nothing. No witnesses. A guy in a Mercedes is more believable than a girl on a bike. Case closed.
