This morning I am heading to work on my usual route. Pulled up to the corner of the two lane street to make a right hand turn. I am looking left to wait for traffic to clear, the bus passes and the lane is open so I start to pull out to make my right hand turn. All of a sudden there is a jogger in front of me, she puts her hand out and swerves away from my car. She actually touched my car.
What the hell? She starts screaming at me like it is my fault that she ran out in front of my car and I nearly ran her over. As she was screaming at me I mouthed the words "sorry" but as I drove down the street, it took everything I had not to turn back around, find her and get out of my car and scream at her...."where do you get off screaming at me when you clearly ran out in front of my car...are you stupid? You should have waited until I turned, until I acknowledged that I saw you and waved you on to go in front of me, or ran BEHIND my car so you didn't get run over."
I never even saw her because I was watching the traffic to the left for a clearing so I could "SAFELY" pull out into traffic. Unsuspecting that a person would dart out in front of me from the right--- off of the sidewalk......I was so aggrivated.

I'm sorry that happened. It is so frustrating when people don't pay attention.
