Dude!! Glad you are ok, that coulda easily been a lot worse. As others have said, you showed a ton more restraint than me, I would have followed her till I caught her or ran out of gas. It total bullshit that she didn't at least stop to make sure she didn't flatten you.

Not to hijack the thread, but when did you live in SF? Those were my stomping grounds from 2000-2006. Good times. Did you ever get over to East Bay with Redwood Rd or, my favorite, Calaveras Blvd? My buddy got nailed by someone who crossed into oncoming traffic (there really was only 1.5 lanes) on Calaveras. Then the asshole did a 15 point turn to go back where he came to run off while my friend was laying broken in the road. Buddy got the guy's license plate, but the cops screwed up the investigation or something.

I never did get down to the Lick Observatory.

She was probably from MoCo. :fitz:

And someday she's going to get stopped by a LEO and her worst nightmare will be realized when Bucho walks up to her car... :flush:

I hope that happens and I wish I could be there to see that!

WWOSSUVD (Worthless waste of skin suv driver): Ah, hi officer. I know I was speeding a little but...

Bucho: Good evening ma'am (realization dawns) do you remember hitting a motorcycle a few days ago?

WWOSSUVD: Ahhh, (color slowly draining out of her face)

Bucho: I have something I would like to show you (reaches for stun gun.....)

Bucho,
I'm so happy it was only your mirror! This weekend was not good for DR riders huh? I commend you on your self-restraint, I don't know if I could keep myself from loosing it. I have removed a mirror or two from asshole drivers and am honestly ashamed I behaved that way, I'm glad you didn't. It seems like the right thing to do at the time though!

It's so DAMN hard to keep it together when people almost kill you, they just don't get it.

Wow... Glad you stayed upright. But I agree, you should have gotten the tag and called the MSP.
