That's what I was starring at. With the bus in the middle lane of that pic. I was turning right obviously, because you can't drive fwd.

ahh, so the bus had a left turn yield on green?  Sounds like you can screw them to the wall then.
Yes, but where do I start? Who do I reach out to?

Do those buses have one of those "How is my driving?" stickers on the back?
Probably, but I was too busy trying not to get smashed, so I never saw it.  :frown:

Probably, but I was too busy drying not to get smashed, so I never saw it.  :frown:

Well look for another bus and call the number on the sticker.

I just told my story to a operator and she said she'd hand it to her supervisor asap. She kept asking me if I had the bus number and I was like: "I was too busy trying to avoid getting hit by your bus. I didn't exactly think about it at the time." Nothing will happen.  :lol:

Yes. I repeated 11th and Broadway at 11:40am like 5 times.

Look for the north end of the loop to go away before the cap on the south loop happens.  Personally I'd rather the cap first.

The chances of either of these things happening within the next decade is like 0.5%

I pray for odds that good if talking 10 years. I could see partial caps coming for the South loop as projects like the Hyatt get built.

Lots of routes use that turn... Usually dangerously. I usually send complaints right to their twitter account... They seem to be receptive through that channel.

I recommend calling back and using the term "$!#* punt".  It's basically a power phrase that gets you want you want at all times.
