There must be something about their "professional training", I really
can't think of anything else to explain it.

Every day I ride up North road, usually with no problems

Every day I am passed by several hundred cars, usually with no problems.

Every day I am passed by one or two buses from other bus lines,
usually with no problems.

About once a month some maniac in a Grendas bus seems to want to kill me.

January, run off the road, then told to G* F*d by Grendas management
when I wrote to them.

February, abuse screamed at me by a Grenda driver for being in the
adjacent lane 3m from the bus wanting to do a hook turn!

Today, 6115-A0 passed at I guess 70-80km/hr with about 10cm clearance,
blew my bag off my back and helmet half off my head. Any chance of
pulling out a bit into the (vacant) adjacent lane next time? At the
Clayton rd/north rd set of lights I pulled up alongside the bus in the
middle lane, 'cos I thought he would be pulling into the bus stop
after the lights, but instead WHILE CHATTING ON THE PHONE, he swerved
out half a metre into my lane while pulling away from the lights then
tore off up North road and through the Dandenong road lights as they
went orange to red.
