Drunk Dude in the road will jump out in front of you and scream at you. I guess all that didn't fit on the sign. USE CAUTION does cover it, but I thought they meant the grooved pavement. I was somewhat unprepared for Drunk Dude.
"Call 911 Sir, I've just been assaulted" Now it was my turn to do something. And I swerved and pedaled on. No, I never looked back. This wasn't a comatose guy on a tricycle. I did nothing.
He was lunging into the street demanding I take action. Now I'm not up on my liquor bouquets, but I strongly believe that basenote was octane. Or at least flammable. And he didn't appear assaulted, but I'm no expert.
Lucky for him those guys on the right are. I hate to point out the obvious, oh who are we kidding I LOVE that, you might actually get a quicker response on your left. There, that brightly lit building...I'm fairly certain it's open. And I bet they have phones. They might even have a direct line, bypassing 911 altogether.
Yes, there, that one, the one that says HOSPITAL. Really. If you go around to the side they can dial 911. In fact, if you were truly assaulted, they are uber trained for that. There, under the EMERGENCY sign, the doors should open when you walk up. You may have to wait, but the phone call, immediate. Best of Luck.
