Almost hit by a car at Clark/Madison

Hi Chainlink,

 

No real point to this post other than that I almost got hit by a SB car at Clark/Madison as I was heading west on Madison. The car blew through the red light and it was a pretty close call, or, at least, it felt close to me. Strangely, it was our WB green light that was nearing the end of its countdown, so this really was just a car straight-up plowing through a red (as opposed to trying to beat a yellow and failing).

 

Feel pretty shaken up. Bike safe, Chainlinkers.

It's like reading my autobiography of close calls in the city, complete with crazy cab interactions.
