That about sums it up. The wife and I are headed home after a nice dinner out, I'm cruising along, minding my own business, and all of a sudden this drunkard starts walking out into the street ! I'm through the intersection starting to slow........(he doesn't see me)......harder on brakes......(****,he's not even looking up).......braking really hard!!! (slight lockup on the front)...........and bam!!! I was pretty much stopped so I just bumped him to the ground. He gets up and says.......

"dude, you hit me"

No **** :blink: .....I think to myself. "are you OK?"

he walks away.

I follow him over to the sidewalk which is where I make the realization he's loaded (st. patricks day - college town)

I call 911................police arrive............he's charged with jay walking (cab driver gave a statement to the cops that I had a green light)

As for the feejer...............I'll take a better look tomorrow, but we didn't go down and I rode it home with no issues noticeable.

Happened so fast I forgot about the magnum blasters :dribble:

Thank god it only comes once a year

Sounds normal for northeast DC when trying to cut through the area to my son's college after work.

I had one try to wash my windshield. I was on the bike at the time.
