Now Tom has a broken pelvis.
And Fred is beside himself with guilt as he acknowledged his extremely dumb move.
Don't ride stupid.

I did this to my wife shortly after we started dating. We were on a route that I had done a hundred times, but 1st for her. I don't know if I didn't signal, or she didn't see it? Turned right, and took her out. Thankfully no real harm done. I felt like an ass.
