Hi, pretty sure I know the answer to this but I just wanted to confirm after getting into a heated discussion with a bus driver.
I was travelling in the cycle lane, when the bus passed me. Traffic ahead was slowing and I continued on and was then moving faster than the bus, as I was about level with the centre of the bus he then drifted over and had 2 wheels in the cycle lane and continued moving over I proceeded to shout at him as he almost forced me into a hedge.
After pulling up and having a go he tried to blame me for undertaking which this isn’t possible when I just stayed in the cycle lane is it?
Also he then said buses are allowed to enter bus lanes due to their size, he said to check the Highway Code. Is this correct? I can’t see it being true but there was no need here anyway as the road is pretty wide
