Bus DENNIS DART T79 JBA deliberately side swiped me on A6 between 4 lane ends and Chequerbent roundabout near Wesyhoughton (Bolton) about 6:15 this evening
Appauling weather but I did have two flashing rear red lights and flashing blue lghts on my jacket
Only glad I wasn't injured
Can't believe the mentality of these 'drivers'
Nice one mate!
Thanks for that

Call the police too - bus likely to have CCTV
as above make a formal statement to police,and also contact GMPTE, they sponsor some buses to run non commercialy viable services.
Jesus! The power of the internet is sometimes quite scary...
Thats the reason some bus owners and drivers hate bus enthusiasts, you never know what they may see and report on the bus forums.
Bus enthusiasts. Bus. Enthusiasts. Enthusiastic about buses? My god.

LOL took me a minute there
Any update, or just like some buses running late.
Emailed company, no reply... what I expected
Unless I was injured, police don't want to know 🙁

Not good from the Police - did you explain that it was dangerous driving? If no joy then try the local paper/MP route

What did you ask plod to do?
Phone the company. Much harder to ignore someone on the end of a phone than an e-mail.

Hang on.. by that logic someone could shoot at you, but if they miss then there's no crime?
Surely if there's evidence a crime has been committed (ie attempted gbh/whatever) then they are obliged to do something?

This. Don't be fobbed off. Escalate it.
