The annoying thing was how little I could have done about it.
I turn left immediately after that bus stop, so ignoring the seg lane and using the main carriageway means having to move back across the bus lane almost immediately (which means encountering the same problem as the bus driver did - a flow of cyclists and buses), so that's why I chose the seg lane.
Then when you get out of the seg lane there's no escaping into the main carriageway because there's a big ol' bus in your way. You've no option but to aim for the ever-closing gap.

I seem to have made an enemy of a bus driver on my commute, have had a couple of moments where I have been overtaken at unsafe spots, only to watch the gap between curb and bus narrowing in front of me, not nice.
