Had a scary incident with a BCC bus last week seeming to ignore the fact that to pass a cyclist you actually have to move over a bit not just give them 2 inches to spare then move left before that big back wheel has passed - so I rang BCC and reported the near-death experience and received very positive feedback from them and the transport dept. Treated seriously, driver identified and spoken to, encouraged to continue riding as "you have every right as a vehicle to be on the road" and also told that heaps of BCC drivers are now encouraged to ride to and from work and some are even starting to tackle Mt Glorious....... So make sure you ring up about any bad incidents, identify the bus if you can, it appears to be worth the effort!
