Coming to the end of a morning ride, for some reason this bus decides to squeeze past to get to the bus stop, whilst also closing the available gap to virtually zero. Dangerous and pointless move.
Incident type: Bus
This is a slightly less frightening version the the incident involving another Stagecoach 42 bus at almost the same location and almost the same time the previous day.

Bus overtakes when it is not safe to do so.
Transperth bus driver has come from outside lane across to close pass at less than the legal 1.5m distance for a 70 zone. Little excuse with both lanes empty before coming across.

Not a close pass, but a serious driving offence which is common around here because of essentially zero enforcement by the police. The school coach was a long way from the lights when the lights turned amber AND when they turned red. The police will ignore the offence. Time on the video is GMT
A driver from Bartons Coaches made a close pass while I was cycling to work. I estimate the coach was extremely close when it passed, and it continued to move towards me as it passed, forcing me into a lane designed for a bus stop and parked cars.
3rd Bus close call today! Travelling north on old Pacific Hwy coming into Cowan. Two Nth Sydney Bus Charter Buses travelling at high speed pass. First no problem then the second within centimetres. Reported to the bus company but dont think anything will be done.
