So this eco-activist guy who goes by the name of No Impact Man is pedaling along Broadway when this big black Mercedes veers into his path, and the driver yells two expletives that cannot be printed in this family magazine. Yadda yadda, you say, typical New York story. Except that the driver was state senator Jeff Klein. To his credit, Klein later met with No Impact Man and agreed to consider legislation that would improve safety for cyclists in the crowded city.
