I parked the little EL at a parking meter and proceeded to cross the street at a pedestrian crosswalk.
This CT bus starts edging over towards the crosswalk as he proceeds to make a left turn. I already started walking, so I thought I'd keep going instead of stopping.
It got really interesting when this guy wouldn't stop getting closer to me.
I was gradually forced to walk further and further away from the crosswalk until he actually made me walk outside the perimeter!
He got so close to me that he actually brushed my leg!
I stopped there and started asking him what the hell he was doing and giving him the "what the fuck" gesture. He just kept moving and I had to get outta the way!

Wadup w/ that?

did u memorize the bus #? im sure u can call ct and complain. companies like that are pretty anal about making sure their drivers are good.

yeah. i got the number.
it was an east indian fellow driving.
i think i might call in, cause if i didn't move, he would've plowed me down.

does it really matter that it was an EI guy driving?

ive had numerous run-ins with c-train staff back in highschool, i seriously question whether they hire through an asylum. some of these people are absolutley mental.

i've had quite a few incidents with bad drivers, mostly attitude issues. i understand how you can be an ass to a "cool" high schooler sometimes but even old grannies?!??!?!

if this much is happening to you i think it might not be that the bus driver is an asshole but your actions were also part of that consequence. we're talking mean busdrviers, not busdrivers that retaliate to punks
