I was on the green 52 last night about 5pm coming home from work, when I noticed the bus driver was acting a bit strange.

While driving up to Broomhill from Brook Hill roundabout he thought it was a good idea to try and put his jumper on while driving, crazy man!

As he wriggled into his sweater we narrowly missed a cyclist and a somerfield lorry as the bus was swerving across the road!

Has anyone else experienced erratic driving by bus drivers? It's just recently I've had the experiences of a few bad apples that have made my journey a bit hairy to say the least! :)

lol.....you should have rung the bus company and told them. I have rung once, couple of years ago, to complain about a 52 driver who accelerated down the very tight windy bit of walkley lane.....the bus went into a skid he was going so fast...we were all saying our prayers as our lives flashed before us... the bus company were more than helpful and i havent seen that driver since.
I have also rung to tell them how nice and polite the majority of their drivers are (i only use their 52 tho) - although i notice there are more and more ex-first drivers now. one of them told me the pay was slightly better, he finished at 7 so no late shift finishes and had every sunday off.
dont blame him:D

And not forgetting that the the schedules in general can be kept to without chasing around at high speed I suspect.

Must be an ex-first driver ;)
