Gas Station near catastrophe

[hooah54]

Regular at the pump is under $1.80 at the local station.  Finished a 164 mile ride and the yellow light flashes on the BMW.  Pulling into the gas station to an empty pump  a woman in a huge SUV just keeps coming straight at me as if I am not there.  Drop the bike and roll out of the way.  She does not even see me until I drop the bike.  She stops less than a foot from my front end.  She mutters sorry, backs up and drives away.  Two lesson from this: cheap gas make people stupid and there is a reason I don't do concealed carry.

Our cash price for Regular is $2.95 here ; but the drivers aren't any more attentive . It's hard for them to concentrate while looking at their phone . Hate to use the horn , but in that situation I would . As far as carrying , quit a long time ago ; think better without it .

No damage I can see...reflecting on it I should have used the horn but my first instinct was to un-ass the bike...I should have known better to go into the station with the number of cages circling looking for an empty pump.  Really didn't get angry until a few minutes late when I was thinking I would chase her down and shoot out two tires

I saw a Vago slash the tires of a minivan that bumped him when he cut in front of the van. Totally his fault but he decided to scare the crap of the van driver.

Her hormones were probably out of wack  and she pea in her pants

This why I have air horns on both my bikes!
