gaucho777 I've had a few close calls over the last couple of decades riding in the greater bay area. Usually, I just keep going and shrug it off. However, my usual cool demeanor has been bested a handful of times by the desire to exact revenge or make a point. Those instances result in yelling, gesturing or, a couple of times, hard hand slamming somewhere on the car, usually the trunk. Did that once, slammed the trunk of a car, for blocking the bike lane (and sidewalk) trying to get out of a parking lot into stopped traffic in Santa Rosa. They followed me down a side street and called the cops. That resulted in an irritating waste of time. Short story short, the cops don't give a hoot.
