Been watching it on the news for two days now. They are still looking for the biker, I've done that same thing before when a car  started coming over on me. Not smart and I'll never do it again. Age has mellowed me, thank God, and now I just back off. Never a good idea to ride in some one's blind spot. That biker almost bought the wall. Biking comes with a certain element of risk and danger and we are all responsible to do all we can to keep those elements as low as possible.

Yipe! I commuted 110 miles roundtrip when I was working in Cali for many years. I lane split every trip. But in the carpool lane, you don't split between the car and the wall!
When you're feeling mighty low
like your better days are past
Just take a ride in your underwear
and you'll feel better fast!

Looks like a nightmare from any angle I've got here...

And it appears to be lite traffic, too !

We've got excessive heat/temp warnings all around here...  the already stressed commuters will be even worse.

Exercise even more caution than what might be usual.
