Having not spent any money on buses this year, I thought that my days of disparity with TFL were at an end, until about 6 o'clock this evening.
I was cycling along at about 25 or so, and I noticed 2 buses pulled up at a bus stop . I couldn't see the second bus' driver, as he was parked so close to the bus in front(why on earth do they do that???). "Fair enough", I thought, right until the second bus decided to pull out without indicating, to overtake the other bus. Right onto my side of the road, in front of me. I put up my hand in the ususal 'wtf' gesture, only to see him do the same, only with a number of select words (which thankfully I didnt hear). He carried on driving at me, forcing me to mount the pavement with about an inch or so to spare, and carried on his way.
Unfortunately, I didn't catch his number plate, as it was over in seconds. I do know the number of the bus route, though without an accurate time, what good would this be?
A bit annoying that my first topic here is a negative one. Nonetheless, it's an awesome community here, And one that I feel comfortable to rant in, which says a lot!
