His mirror just missed me by 2 inches. I had to contort myself around the mirror to look at him through the passenger side widow. He was on his phone.
I pounded on the window. I think I may have scared him a little, but he still glared at me.
Light turned green and he took off.
Van had a "how's my driving" sticker on the back
😁😁😁😁!

Needless to say, I spoke to a very nice gentleman on the phone.
I passed the business he pulled into, looked like where he worked.

I hope he got a massive lecture!
Heh. I called the employer of a truck driver who almost hit me while I was riding to work. He also told me to go eff my mother. The guy I spoke with was appreciative and also said “I’m not surprised.” Clearly, there had been trouble with the employee before. I had described him very well, right down to the cap he was wearing.
