by a gardening ford truck w/an attached trailer full of branches/cuttings/etc along the 101/pch in carlsbad. so close the leaves brushed against my left arm and the
hub/wheelwell/tire of the trailer was about 3 inches from my left elbow/left handlebar. nothing quite like catching up at the next light and giving the applicable jerk a
well-deserved staredown. dude had plenty of room to his left and gave a little, weak honk (so i know he "saw" me) but choose to be a jerk. may your vehicle be
repoed.
