Not content with using his own side of the road is want half of mine as well.
Had to mount the Kerb to avoid a head on collision, now got another unwanted £170.00 bill for wheel refurbishment.

I know what you mean, one time going past a bus and the driver just pulled out without indicating, had to mount the kerb on the otherside of the road just to avoid it. Got the number of bus and registration number and phoned the comapny and had a rant, they appologised and offered free bus fares for 6 months (which is useless though a nice pressie for a student i thought).

You should write to the bus company to complain, tell them as a direct result of their driver's bad driving you're facing this bill, and ask them to pay up!

Prob won't get anywhere, but worth a try

I am sorry to hear. But at least in our own cars we are not faced with having some crazy person leave bags of explosives on our seats.

Its not an excuse for terrible driving and a lot of them are simply terrible (route 183 in london!) but honest at this precise time I would hate to be driving a bus.
