The trama of city living (almost)
On the way home from work I was about 6" away from getting hit by the front end of a car. I took my normal route as always. At the first light that I had to navigate - it has a rather interesting traffic pattern. It's a T shaped crossing. So cars have to turn either right or left. I continue walking straight across the street before turning. When the light turns green - this allows cars to turn right and left and at the same exact time pedestrians to walk straight across the street. This only disrupts traffic turning right. There is no right on red.
Of course some car doesn't understand that A) Pedestrians get the 'walk' signal at the same time cars are allowed to go B) Pedestrians ALWAYS have the right of way in Mass and you aren't supposed to drive across a walkway when any pedestrian is in the crosswalk.
Yeah - some guy didn't understand that and almost hit me. Then he has the odassity to roll down his window and tell me that he had the green light. No shit sherlock. But at the same time I have the green light to cross. Thanks for trying to hit me b/c you're so fucking impatient.
I really wish that I had a cane at the moment to hit the front end of that car with. I hate people who are so self righteous that they can't fatham that they might have made a mistake and almost hit a pedestrian. Retards. Learn to swim!
I wish I knew the guys email address so I could email him this post. If anyone knows a guy in boston with a late model white subaru SUV that almost hit a girl at about 6:10pm tonight in Central Square. Feel free to send him a copy of this post.
Asshat.
