I almost DIED at lunch time

Today I went home for lunch, and while driving on Robertson, a white car in the lane to my left pulled into me, running me off the road and almost killing me. I know it happens all the time to all of us, so why should I care, but her car was literally inches away from my face (ie. the driver's side door).

I slammed on my brakes and swerved to avoid death. Then I honked at her. A lot. And for a long time. She had wandered more than halfway into my lane, before she realized what she had done. NOTE: she was NOT using her turn signal.

Now, I would have let it go but she didn't even acknowledge what she had done; not even with the courteous apology wave. So I pulled up next her at the first red stop light. I was still honking. I motioned at her "Hello?" Nothing. No response. We drove further. Stopped again. I honked. I motioned at her AGAIN. She saw me. Still nothing.

So here's my thinking, if you ALMOST kill someone by running them off the road, you should give them the courteous "I'm sorry" wave.

Once, this guy in a truck almost ran me off the road, and he not only waved, but yelled "Sorry!" through his window (so loud I could hear him) and also gave me a peace sign. That is the ideal response to give while driving if you almost murder someone.

So lady...I wrote down your license plate to post here for the world to see.

If anyone sees her, give her a honk for me.

White Toyota Corolla (newer model) - License Plate 5LRE785 - driven by a shorter, mid-50's, Caucasian woman with dark brown hair styled like Meryl Streep in "The Devil Wears Prada". Yeah, I took the time to notice her hair, but it was quite lovely, okay? Honk anyway!!
