It is a beautiful morning. I’m out riding my bike to the beach. There are lots of busy streets and intersections. I decide to cross at one particularly busy intersection so decided to use the pedestrian crosswalk. I waited for the light and when it turned green, I proceeded across forgetting the pedestrian light. Halfway across a woman in car turning left had to wait for me and rudely shouted “Wait for your light, idiot!”
I had an impulse of anger but then I realize it was true. I’m sorry, even if it is true it’s not what I want to hear. Why are people so rude???
