I asked him to give me a reason I shouldn't call his boss and lay a complaint. He didn't, so I did.
In the past I've had to call PSTA to report drivers who passed too closely, or who have returned to the travel lane in front of me too soon.
By the same token I have also called PSTA to compliment drivers who gave plenty of room when passing. I've watched plenty of them who would move over to the other lane at least a car length behind me and would wait until they're a car length ahead of me before returning to the travel lane.
And I figure that if we're going to call to report a bus driver, cab driver, or what have you for dangerous behavior we have to also call to compliment their drivers when they are courteous to other road users.
