Around once a week in the Bay I'm exposed to severely reckless driving (going 60+ mph downhill through residential stop signs around blind curves, not swerving into any of the 3 empty passing lanes when going 120+ till within spitting distance, actively swerving in front of me to throw trash into my windshield and slam on the brakes while zig-zagging to prevent passing, ...).
Police are sometimes helpful but usually won't bother to even make a report. I take less psychotic roads nowadays even if they're slower. I'm not sure what to do other than stop driving or leave. Do you have any advice for surviving SF roads?
On bike I only ride routes that I have either been before, walked, or driven through. I have some sense of safety.
Otherwise, I stay calm on roads and never try to overreact to the overly aggressive people driving around me. I also never take too aggressive lane change because I worry someone might have road rage.
