Bus passed me this morning, one of the closest yet, thro a set of lights on a dual carriageway. He was pulling into the bus stop 20m beyond the junction (crossroads).
Strange thing was, when overtook again he was completely in the right hand lane.
That sounds to me like he made an error of judgment because he was concentrating on the stop, not you, and knew he'd ballsed up and was trying to make amends.
Not much comfort at the point you are fearing for your life I admit, but it might mean that he at least realised his mistake, and will be more on the ball in future.
Papercorn - a shaped demolition charge? What shape? Something festive like a star or reindeer at this time of year?
