I've only dropped in to read it once and struggled through until the video, then gave up soon after

I will make one point only on this thread, which has probably already been said and call me arrogant / ignorant for not following it all the way through if you will but I will gamble that it (the thread) has followed a similar path to others like it.
As long as an 'us and them' confrontational attitude is carried through with this type of antagonistic behaviour perpetuated between different segments of the road user community, then it's not really going to resolve anything.
This is not a criticism of Matt or the Bus driver per se - more directed at how 'people' generally appear to be happy to quickly fall into polar camps far too easily.
IMO, respect, courtesy and aiming to try and share the squeezed spaces we are offered in this country would go far further than blaming and point scoring when the inevitable glitches occur.
Close proximity of use is bound to cause issues, rather than turning every squeezed passing of astral bodies into a LawyersRU debate, it might be an idea to accept that the rhythms and perceptions of different users are something for us all to work on understanding better and aiming to think about how to deal with it all positively ... play nice now folks
