Coaches are terrible, particularly ones from Europe so the driver’s on the other side (AND probably texting on his phone).
I got pushed off the road by a bus the other day, reported it to TFL but haven't heard anything back as yet. Normally they’re pretty good at replying (not that I complain to them all the time, just when one of their drivers makes it clear they’re trying to kill me through malice or negligence).
I actually think the standard of driving is getting worse in London. No one looks before pulling out of side roads! Or sometimes they do look, they see me, and pull out anyway. I expect this sort of driving from minicabs but it’s everyone. I’m finding it really, really hard to control my temper, especially as there’s nothing you can do about it...
