I live in a rural community. What scares me the most is the dumbass hicks flying around in their giant vehicles, both old and young. They’re always driving like their houses are on fire.
When I go running on country roads in spandex and sandals, the hicks in the trucks go by real friggin' slowly. Like, aggressively slowly.
Maybe they just want to objectify you for a bit, if you're in Spandex?
I assume that's the case when I cycle in rural areas in Spandex.
Here's where the problem is. The sheriff is viewing the potential for the kid to get hit by a person driving a car as the kid's fault, when of course the fault should lie completely with her person operating heavy machinery.
