Another near miss…

Saturday night.

The man and his dog had completed their loop, and were a few yards away from their house, when it happened.

Once again, he was well into the cross walk, when someone nearly ran him over.

The man was greatly displeased by this, and voiced his displeasure loudly, and crudely.
This, it turns out, might have just saved his life.

The driver of the offending vehicle had her window down, and heard him yell, which caused her to stop.
She had apparently not seen the man and the dog.

She looked slightly ill, at the realization that she had almost struck the man, as she spoke.

“I don’t know what the f*ck I WAS doing.” she said, answering the EXACT question the man had loudly posed.
“I’m so sorry!”

The man could not help himself, and broke into a big smile. He waved to her, as she patiently waited for he and the dog to finish crossing the street.
