Yes, at least in Boston it's a major issue. I've personally seen three separate instances of a MBTA bus forcing a cyclist on to the curb by approaching them from behind, passing, and cutting them off.
They _should_ be predictable, but that does not seem to be the case in my anecdotedal experience.
And regardless, why put the onus of responsibility on the bus driver when a segregated lane would solve the issue entirely?
- jessaustin 7y agoIn all honesty, I've seen more examples of armored trucks (a much rarer vehicle) forcing cyclists onto the curb than of buses doing so. One episode was particularly memorable since I was the cyclist... happily, it seems that armored trucks all have a "how am I driving?" number painted on the back.
