I almost got killed a while back when a York Pullman open topper (one of the B-- WUV Leyland Titan's that used to be in Cumbria) blatantly ignored the red light at the end of Leeman Road and pulled out into my right of way coming from the train station - only my retuned disc brake stopped me seeing the underside of 1980's British Leyland engineering."

Problem drivers

10:26am Friday 27th April 2012 in Letters By Reader's letter

FURTHER to the letter from Brian Nye (April 25), in my experience it is some bus drivers who are the problem.

If they allowed passengers to sit before they started off there wouldn’t be the same scope for injuries.

I gave up cycling in York because the bendy buses were being driven, in some cases, with little care for other road users.

They have their own lanes so think they own the roads. If York had cameras at traffic- lights, buses would be a great source of revenue, given the number of times I see them jumping lights.

C Page, Gale Lane, York.
