Ok,lets look at it again.The bus indicated to pull away,and started to,but a bike seemed to appear from nowhere.Now because the lights were red behind, and nothing normally may be coming,and the way the bike must have been behind the bus,not in mirror angles,so unseen by the driver,who may have missed the bike rlj ing possibly,because of dealing with on off passengers?then as it started to pull away,a bike is then visible at the rear of the bus.It seems to me ,that because of cicumstances,who is to blame for the confrontation?The drivers reaction to sarcasm and an appearing bike,well sticking the fingers up,is as agreed the wrong thing to do.what about the bike?they may not have seen the indicators of the bus,but thats unlikely,as they are quiet visible things,so did the cyclist decide to ignore the fact that the bus was going to pull away?And carry on regardless,then its the cyclists fault isnt it?
Did the bike rlj? who knows,but its a possibility?The bus driver wasnt expecting the bike,and didnt see it on the first check,but did on the second as starting to pull away.Now if the bike wasnt there on the first check,at the same time as indicating to pull away,where was it?Whatever we decide,we dont know why the cyclist did what they did,was the road slippy?only the bus driver could answer that,was it dangerous for the bike to slow and let the bus go?unlikely.What it seems we have,is someone not willing to give when they should have,not because they have to,but because its safer to.As for hinting that people shouldnt be in their jobs because they sometimes act like most of us may at some time,is a bit harsh.In other words,these things happen,how we deal with them is what counts.
