He didn't make the turn as he had hoped. Turned out he was high(quite common in AK) and had a few drinks as well.
Hey, Jay! That IS you! It's cool to see you on here. AKIC misses ya. haha

I drive like I'm a target. All my AK friends that ride bikes know to do this and for me it's just instinct. I treat EVERYONE like they're a terrible driver and aren't paying attention.

I do applaud drivers that drive like they actually realize they're sharing the road. I actually DO applaud them, like the slow clapping in my car when I can take my hands off the steering wheel.
