Last weekend I drove approx 700miles around the country...I never had any close calls, or any incidents, until....... I was within 0.5miles of my home in North London!
I'm driving at about 20-25mph going up hill. There is a large double decker bus in front of me. It signals to stop at a Bus Stop and pulls over. The opposite side of the road is clear, and so I indicate and start to overtake. At the point I started to overtake the bus still had his left indicator on. Just as I am halway past the bus, the bus pulls out. I am forced to swerve towards parked cars on the other side of the road to avoid the bus hitting me and slam on the brakes.
The bus driver did not even indicate and clearly did not look before almost causing a collision.
I have noticed many times recently how aggressively bus driver's drive.
-I have been on a bus that hit the wing mirror off a car and carried on going.
-I have been on a night bus that was driving so wrecklessly fast people have got off.
I can't help thinking the people driving double decker buses think that they are driving Citreon Saxo's.
