Last night at around 22:45 I was riding back home, and came to a road with a sharp bend and
blind corners.
A Reading Transport night-bus was proceeding down this road in the opposite direction (which can
*just* about handle a bus turning down it, but the curve of the bend makes it *very* tight).
I got ready to take evasive action so I didn't end up in a dodgy part of the gutter...
At this point, the bus driver then *put on the brakes* and *let me through!*
Unfortunately, as I was too busy now looking *behind* the bus in case some cagers had decided to try
and nip into the space the bus-driver had given me, I was unable to get the bus index number or
fleet number (painted on the side of a bus and usually the numerical part of the index plate) - I
was so amazed by this I wanted to tell both Reading Transport and Thames Valley Police so the driver
could receive appropriate praise!
