    Re: OK Drivers, What Gets Your Goat?

    You can always start your own poll.

    I think that you were quite restrained in you response to that bus driver. The man's a fool because he can easily lose his PCV licence over bad driving like that.

    I was taught a simple countdown when getting a bus away from a stop into traffic.
    Indicate, one car OK, two cars, pushing it, third car - sorry mate, too late I'm moving out.

    Going slightly off-topic I remember photographing a driver who had blocked me into a bus stop when he obviously thought that he had every right to do so, well he had to cross the road on foot and buy a newspaper, as you do.

    Anyway, when he saw me with the camera and notebook he went off on one, ranting and shouting at me and dredging the gutter for some choice language. But what cracked me up was that he then started punching the bus with his fist. Boy I felt every punch.

    Definately more restrained than I would have been when I was younger.

    With hindsight I should have taken a few photo's, and details and sent them off to his employer.
