On my way home, as I was turning left onto my street, a car tried to pass me on the left . I left work an hour earlier than most days I commute, so more traffic, but really? I am turning off of a busier road (one lane each way) onto my street. I am a stickler for looking, signaling, keeping my arm out there, and even shaking my finger. I have a rear blinkie and a headlight that I use at all times. I saw a small gap, signaled, and as I was not quite by the yellow line, a guy in an old convertible was going around me. He was halfway in the wrong lane. I slowed, so he wouldn't hit me as I turned. I called him lots of bad words, but I doubt he heard me.
I have never had an issue here, and there have been many times I've had 2-4 cars wait behind me as I turn. Trying to figure out why I never had anything like this on my old commute, before I moved to the condo. It was a commute that went through more traffic, intersections, etc. I've concluded that the main road outside my street is full of people from other places where cyclists are not so common. My old commute, went through a busy area that is a mecca for cyclists.
Oh well, onward.
