The bus drivers around here are, in the vast majority of cases, very good
and pleasant to share the road with. There are always some exceptions.

From a pedestrian's point of view, even in London it is those bus
drivers who see you running for the bus and deliberately pull away or
slam the door in your face who are remembered; the many more who wait
for you - and I saw one extremely nice driver wait for a young woman who
had to run for quite a distance two days ago - are soon forgotten.
