For any part of the country that's way too high. Way to rich for my blood. My parents bought their house (I grew up in) for $16k in 1966. The area houses go for about $200k. I guess it depends on the area in the Buffalo area. -
Also to keep you sorta lucid... π... There's a joke in here somewhere.ππ

ππExactly! That's what caught my eye w/this article... Liver is huge. I am a simple lock operator but I can open some organism up and take a pretty good guess what the liver is! Anyway, reminds me when my son broke his elbow in Grade 1... He needed surgery and pins inserted. So... Pre-op, nurse comes in and starts Γing out his good arm, elbow with a Sharpie... I asked what was going on! Her reply: "So Doc doesn't operate on wrong elbow." Oh! I guess, good plan.π I tend to do stuff like when woodworking. Clean side, dirty side, cut-offs, etc...π

Crazy, didn't know that. Pun I see. In more than one way!π

On the bright side, probably why he fessed up right away... Just a thought... NOT passing judgements, but learning from this whole mess: IF I am ever the vehicle that was the one being passed... I am staying in my lane... That would have protected the bicyclists... Let the impatient driver pass me on the left, let them stick their neck out. I probably would have slowed down behind the bikes and let him blow by me on left. THEN when everything was clear, get around the bicycles... I would have never got in left lane with someone riding my azz, bicycles in front or not. I wonder how this will play out in court other than the drunk part. There seems a lot a good defense attorney could question. Just saying... This could have easily happened with both drivers being sober. Aggressive driving is an epidemic.

...Maybe Mo Lewis should have done the honors? Sheesh! https://www.timesnownews.com/world/us/us-news/who-is-thomas-shaknovsky-florida-doctor-under-fire-for-allegedly-removing-liver-instead-of-spleen-article-113005859 π€¦ββοΈ

Ha! Did you catch the older guy in the video checking the boxing news under his spreadsheet? π 8:00 to 8:20. That was the staff accountant.ππ He probably had the tracks results from Aqueduct too under his book! Yeah... Some really corny ones years ago. We'd watch the military one's... Some colonel would walk in an hit on the secretary. /smdh...

I go back to NJ all the time to visit daughter. Even in that area of South Jersey... I am amazed how densely populated it is for a smaller, less spread out area... Always some aggravated driver on your azz morning, noon, & night! Even out in the sticks! Suburbanites do "block" too! Just an aggressive clustereff. If they need to post road signs about it, then there's a problem!

@QCity Surprising in this day and age the drunk was that honest about the situation. He's gonna have to live with that forever! The question is... 40 minutes after sunset, did bicycles have their lights on? Again, NOT excusing the DUI... So many impatient drivers... Even my deer strike was a product of it... I was wondering why the guy ahead moved left and stopped. They saw deer and I didn't! I thought he was pulling up to a house, driveway... /smdh... But I also slowed and the deer darted for my headlights right into me. More like it hit me. I would have definitely saw a properly lit bike ahead of me! Hopefully the family heals.

Probably played out dude was tailgatimg vehicle ahead. Went left to pass, then Vehicle ahead moved to center, azzzhole on tail thought they were "blocking" and picked the right (which is insane, never pass on right) thinking it was safer route to pass then the oncoming lanes... Then π₯, because of the tailgating didn't see why vehicle ahead moved over. ...People are wicked aggressive out there... Especially back east. Not exonerating driver, if they were drunk, totally inexcusable. Let's see what test results are. So sad...

Maybe... But bicycles should have lights. YET... I hit a deer like that 2 years ago just past sunset. A vehicle slowed down... They obviously saw something, which I didn't process... I thought they were stopping at a house. I wasn't going fast, but I didn't creep around... Maybe 10 to 15mph... π₯ deer ran right into driver's side front, deer turned around ran back and collapses dead on lawn. $7,000 damage to truck. Point is, didn't even see what happened... I learned my lesson, don't second guess the driver ahead of you, they see things drivers behind don't. Never in a million years did I have deer on my mind. It was the Friday before the Bills playoff loss to Cincy @ home. I wish the deer had lights! Oh... I wasn't drunk. Totally sober. NOT distracted either If that deer was a bicycle(s) I would never lived it down. Thank God it was 20Β°F & January!

If he had 3 rights, it would definitely solve @Augie 's problem of making a left!
