Google information commissioner and phone them. They should provide the info you need.

It's annoyingly out of date but...

You have the right to see CCTV images of you and to ask for a copy of them. The organisation must provide them within 30 calendar days.
Complain promptly as bus companies don't keep the video for long. You may need to complain to the ICO in which case they shouldn't delete the footage while the complaint is in progress but they probably will...

I emailed a bus company requesting the CCTV footage under GDPR legislation.
This is their reply -
“I have had chance to view the CCTV with the Duty Manager and did notice that our vehicle did cut in too close causing you to brake, which was not the professional standard expected of our drivers.
Our Duty Manager has spoken to the driver concerned about this incident, as really he shouldn’t have passed you on the bridge and should’ve stayed behind you, and also for the encounter afterwards.
I’m afraid we cannot forward you a copy of the CCTV footage due to the Data Protection Act, as we keep all copies here at the Depot. The only time we produce a copy is for the Police, who then come down to complete the paperwork and sign for their copy of the footage.”
I thought they had to provide the CCTV footage under the new GDPR legislation? But they are claiming they can not due to data protection.
Any help on how I should respond?
