WA05 MXG Stagecoach Double decker - Newton Road, Kingskerswell nr Torquay Devon - 18:30 31st March 2010
on my home last night in the cycle lane of a busy A road between Newton Abbot and Torquay, The cycle lane is the usual 750-1000mm wide cycle lane ony with plenty of width of the remaining carriageway.
The traffic slows down to a crawl and the bus driver either it was funny or clever to force me to stop by driving his 20tonne plus vehicle into the cycle lane - he knew I was there as when he eventually let me pass we made eye contact - I gave him the ol' W sign to let him know I wasnt best pleased.
Further up the road when he gained speed he did it again..but this time much much closer
I havent got a camera so its his word against mine..but at the least I thought it was driving without due care at worst attempted murder!!
Am I wasting my time going to the police complaining to Stagecoach or mark it down as experience!?
