I’ve had a car slam on its brakes, schreeching the tires to terrorize me.

Subject: [wsmac] Re: Kid's Safety Day and Bullying
I think it's an important enough issue to incorporate, but I wouldn't want to
focus on it so much that people get confused about our core mission. One
possible point of intersection is bullying of people on foot or bicycle by car
drivers. I don't know how much of a problem this is for people who walk more,
but as a bicyclist, I occasionally experience harassment from drivers, ranging
from people just yelling stupid things at me from their car ("you got a hemi on
that thing?!"), up to more threatening behavior like honking repeatedly,
yelling at me to get out of the (expletive) road or onto the sidewalk, or
intentionally "buzz-passing" me.

I just saw on news story on a 6 y.o. beaten by bullies. I know our committee
focuses more on transportation but how would you feel about our committee
including an anti-bullying campaign at the Kids Safety Day? My oldest and I
were bullied walking to and from school and on the bus. I think it could easily
be combined with the transportation aspect. Thoughts?
