People really need to pay attention! So I went for a ride tonight, still light out. I had this family in a van checking out my bike as I passed them. It went from two lanes down to one and they ended up behind me. I could see his kids in my mirror hanging over his seat pointing and stuff. I noticed he would get close then back off, not sure if he was just trying to get close for a better look and realized he was to close or just an idiot.

As we start to go by the back entrance to the city park I see a duck in the road and slowed down not wanting to risk it running in front of me. The cars in front of me slowed down also but because there was another duck crossing. Next thing I know they stop so I come to a stop. For some reason I felt this urge to look in my mirror. I glance over in my left mirror and see the guys face with a oh sh*t look on it and his wife's hands on the dash! I took my escape route immediately and dam glad I did! I went right as quick as I could and stopped, I turned my head to the left and I was looking right at the guy and his wife that were behind me. She grabbed her chest as to say thank God and started yelling at him, lol.

Ok so she yelled at him but someone in that van needs to get to yelling at the kids and get their butts planted in a seat, since you mentioned that you saw the kids in your bike mirror hanging all over the dad's seat.

Glad your okay.

I'm not sure why it is, but when someone is driving a van they seem to loose all knowledge of how to drive. I know van drivers are not the only bad drivers out there, but they are sure the majority.

One of the reasons I stay in gear all the time when on the road!
