On October 26, 2015, at about 7:50 the driver of a red Ford Fusion passed me dangerously close while I was riding my bike on Collingwood Drive southbound, about 120 ft before the Albert St. Intersection. As the car had to stop at the red traffic light just after passing me, I talked to the driver, noting that she passed me way to close and questioning if she wanted to hit me. She replied that I should move closer to the curb, that's where I belong anyway, and that I should follow the rules. I have been following all traffic rules and was riding about 1/3rd in from the curb on a lane that is too narrow to pass a cyclist safely without moving into the other traffic lane. Based on the response of the driver I assume that she intentionally passed me very closely. I recorded the license plate number and the incident has been reported to the local police.
