Homicidal Bus Driver

Rather uncharacteristically I took the bus in this morning. I adopted the zombie state that seems to be required for such passive commuting trips but was jolted awake by abuse shouted by the driver. We had just approached Hammersmith Bridge at the same time as another bus came off it and the driver seemed to be doing his best to sandwich a cyclist in between and give him a bit of verbal just for good measure.

Not content with this the driver then drove alongside the cyclist, appeared to be pushing him to the kerb and then threatened to run him over.

I have just sent my complaint to TFL and I imagine a number of the other passengers will too - there was quite a murmuring of discontent on board. In fact one of the passengers stepped up furiously and sorted the driver out, he almost got himself a standing ovation. This is quite positive actually, last time I was on that bus all I heard was tutting as cyclists passed by.
