Rubicon, I had a similar experience recently on Hillsboro. With no car traffic behind my cart I merged from the cart lane and was driving along in the merged road, when a large white truck roared up and around me into the oncoming traffic lane and continued on his way at a high rate of speed. The loud noise from the truck's faulty muffler and sudden appearance of the vehicle was very unnerving. I am a very careful cart driver and continually check my mirrors for oncoming rear traffic. That truck was too impatient to wait for me to merge right again. I was so unnerved I now drive a long way to accomplish my cart driving on dedicated paths. I will be safer and live longer (with the rare exception of run away vehicles)
