That's twice now you've interpreted something you didn't like as being 'funny'. Odd. As odd as interpreting the correct view as moronic.[/quote]
No, I did not say I regarded post 122 as funny, that is simply factually incorrect and in your imagination. I was talking in general terms about this thread and even others of a similar nature in commuting.
[QUOTE 1406425"]It's a simple view, yes. And the right one. You came up with your percentages based on a scenario that doesn't exist. The bus isn't veering anywhere, the truck couldn't physically have positioned himself any further to the right, and there's apparently a taxi somewhere which the bus is trying to overtake.
It is simple. The cyclist made several mistakes when he decided to make for the gap. The truck and the bus are in acceptable positions.

It's not that simple. I do no see why people try to shy away from things and simplify things. If people want an 'oh gosh' thread that is fine, but they should really say so.
The bus was not actually going completely straight, it's not by what some would regard as a very big amount, but as I've tried to make clear with a pick up truck slightly blocking a large and slightly wide vehicle from getting past (still much less the pick up fault's than the buses), what do you do in such a situation?
