I was out cycling with some friends on Sunday on a normally friendly cycling route. Around 11:00am we were headed north on Peachtree Street near Colonial Drive, and this fellow driving a black Cadillac CTS apparently thought it would be a good idea to be driving about 80 mph and pass someone on the right through a sight limited curve. Luckily for us he was able to swerve into the left lane at the last minute, but it was a very lucky, very narrow miss, and would have likely killed 3 of our group had he been less lucky.
Of course, we caught up with him about 200 feet down the road at the next traffic light, which was red. He was aggressive in his interactions with us, and generally handled himself as you'd expect of someone who chooses to drive in that manner. I sure hope he made it to brunch on time.
