Reckless motorist

Sydney, Australia

31 May, 2021 - 4 years ago - on Botany Road
I was on the pedestrian walkway, waiting for the lights to change so that I could cross the road. I happened to be reversing my bike to straighten it when I heard a loud bang. Then I realised that someone in a passing vehicle had thrown a drink at me and missed. If I hadn't been reversing my bike, it would have hit me. I had no previous encounter with this vehicle, I had only just turned into this street to make a crossing.
