Default Some people......

So went out for a short ride around the lake today and while riding through our little small town to get to the lake a lady is walking much closer to the center of my lane than to the outer edge of the lane anyway its late in the evening sun in my eyes i dont see her untill right about to run her over i snatch the bike away from her missed her but i could have sworn my right mirror hit her arm, she was probly pushing 70 years old, scares me to death i stop and look back at her and cant believe what shes doing, still standing there in the street laughing about as hard as she can laugh, so i just ride off, so what the **** was her problem ?

She could have been drunk, or otherwise impaired, and may not have realized where she was.

At 70 she could have been looking for a HOG to climb on. Luck you.

If you were having a hard time seeing because of sun glare, then you need to slow down! Ride for the road conditions, if you can't see what's ahead of you what would you have done if it was a larger object?
