Default Buses blocking the road

Anonymouse ) gurgled happily, sounding much
like they were saying :

It's amazing, isn't it. If only all drivers were as good as those who
post to newsgroups!


If only all drivers actually realised that it's an activity that requires
skill and attention... Which is why the ones who post and discuss it are
usually the ones who are better drivers - because they're not just the
sheep who sit behind the steering wheel and zone out until their
destination.

Same as the posters to uk.rec.cycling don't tend to be the brain-dead
"lycra louts" to whom red lights and other traffic laws don't apply.

(Actually, why not brake to let buses pull out? I don't understand that
point.)


Nor do I - and that's why I'll slow or stop to let a bus out if it's safe
to do so.
