I could just stay in my house because of inconsiderate folks, but I'm not.
While I am not a risk taker, no skydiving in my foreseeable future, I am not going to dictate my life by the stupidity of others.
What I am doing is biking smart. I have a safety ritual I go through before I ride. Again I can't change the behaviors of others, just control what I can do.
The reason why I posted this information is so maybe the folks that are guilty of passing too close to bikers or walkers would realize that the law states to stay 3 feet away.
I welcome other folks for thier opinion of biking or walking smart on MMPs.

When my dad taught me to drive, he said,"Expect the other person to do the stupidest possible thing, because that is exactly what they are going to do."
You know from your experience that you have no way to tell who or what is driving a car or a golf cart. You know or should know even if the driver is breaking the law, if they hit you or you hit them, it is you that will get the worst part of it.
