With the buses, I've had some really weird times & stretches of road when they seem to be congested and several of them stopping and going from a series of bus stops not more than a hundred feet or so. The larger cities are that way. Heck, I've even seen Miami-Dade buses that are not in service driving around and at times, it seemed that there were more of them not in service than in service ? When it gets to that point, I just pull over and wait a few until they clear the area. Same goes with cabs, but there are a lot more of them, so really stopping and waiting them out of the area isn't an option. It's why I'm extremely cautious in that area and I know had I been mashing hard thru there I would've been in an accident, well, maybe the likelihood would've increased exponentially with this guy driving ?

My thoughts on that, I can be moving pretty quickly on the bicycle and it's hard to track me at any given moment. I might be in a blind spot, but it's also why I'm cautiously slow.
