Actually, while bus drivers are often obnoxious and rude, they are rarely lethal. There's just no gray area with them.
My attitude toward the road is that I own it, as my taxes have paid for it. All other users are treated graciously and with courtesy, as I would treat all guests. However, those guests who abuse my hospitality are told to leave. That goes double for people like city bus drivers, who are also, after all, my employees.
