You must drive a bus for a living or have a family member who does. You sound like GWB defending Iraq. I was clipped by a bus not too long ago which sent me to the curb. I was in a ~@#$$ bike lane!!! Fortunately I wasn't injured or my bike trashed. Reported the incident, nothing ever happened. I'd say the good to evil bus driver ratio in SF is around 50/50, and maybe I'm being too liberal.
