We've all hear the expression " As ugly as the back end of a bus " ( No ! I wasn't called it
) !?
The other day I was jogging in the pedestrian precinct and nearlly became the back end of a bus
The council have turn our lovely quite safe pedestrian precinct into a bus lane with a bus every 6 minutes racing through
A lot of people are unhappy about this, the bus come through at between 5 and 15 miles an hour ( not 5MPH they say ). They make everyone clear the path with their flashing lights and beepers ( as I said lovely quite safe pedestrian precinct ) which means that if you start just after they go onto the path you can jog along behind it all the way
Problem is like I say their on our path and people don't want it so step out to stop it ( I've done it, other story !? ) and the bus then as to stop. I hadn't kep't the speed up so was I was going a little fast to catch it up when someone stopped the bus !
It's not very funny trying to stop that quickly behind a bus !
I nearlly was " the back end of a bus " !!!
Could you just imagine what the insurance would think ?
How fast was you going ? ~~ 15 miles an hour.
Where was you when the bus hit you ? ~~ Behind it ! The bus had stopped and I HIT it at 15mph !?
