Alameda Runners – Get After It!

Whether you’re out running, riding or driving around Alameda when it’s raining, remember to pay attention!

I’m amazed by the number of drivers — and I don’t want to profile, but it seems to be an epidemic around elementary and middle schools — who buzz pedestrians in cross walks and bicyclists in the bike lanes.

Was driving home when I saw this line of cars (line was just as long coming from two other directions) outside of Lincoln Middle School on Fernside:

Saw reckless drivers buzz people in the crosswalk (and a couple of kids on bikes) just to get into the parking lot to pick up their children.  Remember that the roads are slick, and take into account the sheer number of nervous, panicky drivers around town.
