Fierce and Fearless Fleecy Jul 2017 8:37am, 9 Jul 2017 35,820 posts	Quote Pin Fierce and Fearless Fleecy I actually meant just general driving near buses, but people often overtake dangerously, and they don't let buses out when indicating (which is in the Highway Code). I once stopped to let a bus come out from its stop and two people overtook me at a really dangerous junction just near a school, I'm amazed nobody crashed. They literally had to wait 5 seconds but no, it's a bus, overtake it and that silly person letting them out. Yesterday I was on the bus and someone just pulled out in front of it at a roundabout (not their right of way) and cut in front, the driver only just missed hitting him. A double decker bus weighs enough to make a fine mess of both car and occupants and they don't stop that quickly, I can't understand how someone can be that reckless. Drivers behave similarly round buses as they do with cyclists: they see one and think 'must overtake at all costs' and 'I've got time to nip in front of them' at junctions. It's only down to good bus drivers there aren't more crashes.
