Hey dumbass, ever wonder why hitchhikers don't walk out in traffic?





Can you explain to me the difficulty you have in going around a bicycle on the road?


Logging truck coming toward us in the other lane of a narrow winding 50 mph highway 30 miles from the nearest town and where cyclists are so rare you gotta be kidding about creeping around corners to look for one in the unlikely case one is in my lane. Logging trucks and bicycles are an unwise mix, FWIW. This is the Far West, where time is money to loggers, ranchers and miners who use the roads. Unless it is icy or heavy fog, they are going to drive the speed limit, at least. It is NOT pastoral lanes in New England...


What if another logging truck was broken down around that corner? Boulder in the road? Car accident? Someone who drives for a living shouldn't have to be told not to outdrive his line of sight. But I guess such is the state of modern "professional" drivers.
