Caught on Tape: Payback on Healdsburg Bicyclist

A Healdsburg blogger was out riding his bike when something ugly happened.

It's not often that cameras capture roadway slights. But in this case, a Healdsburg blogger who was out riding his bicycle attached a helmet cam before he hit the road. 

He was moving through a 4-way intersection when a driver cuts him off. The blogger, John Murphy, who operates Holier Than You blog, catches up to the motorist and confronts her.

During the confrontation, he finds out that the cut-off is a result of something that a past bicyclist did to the driver.
