Today I had a close call. On my drive to work, I needed to make a left turn. Before turning, I looked in both directions and saw that it was clear. But as I began to make my turn, I nearly ran into a motorcyclist coming from the right. Though the road had appeared clear of vehicles, I needed to look more closely.
As someone who promotes traffic safety, that's a bit embarrassing. I was shaken, but perhaps not nearly as much as the man on the motorcycle. It was a relief to know we could both head in our separate directions and go about our morning, but it certainly did drive home a valuable lesson.
Even when you've looked, look again.
And to the motorcyclist out there in Jefferson City this morning, I offer my sincere apology.

That had to hurt !
It might hurt you. But, I must tell you it was not your mistake at all. You have follow the traffic rules. But, some people have no sense to follow a traffic rules and the most of the accident occurs. It might be a close shave for you. Hope it would not hurt you.
