Took the bike out this morning for a little cruise, stop by mom's and run an errand or two. As I was heading up HWY 315 in Wilke-Barre, a SUV with a female driver decides she wants to switch lanes. No signal and no apparent reason. The problem I currently occupied the lane she wanted to move to.
Needless to say she continued to move into the lane. I laid on the horn and used a few choice words to get her attention to no avail. I am forced to slow down or be sent into the shoulder of the road.
As I slow down, a Mercedes with 2 occupants procede in the other lan to pass me. He slows down enought to show me that he was pretty discusted with the SUV's lack of courtesy and attention to other drivers.
He then procedes to pull up next to the SUV and I hear him and what I assume is his teenage son screaming at the driver of the SUV that she almost ran me off the road and she should pull her head from places it shouldn't be while driving.
I thought that was pretty cool. So, I pulled up next the the Mercedes to thank him for his support! Doesn't happen like that every day that's for sure.
