I feel pretty safe passing on the left because they are so consistent with this.
Of course I've probably just jinxed myself now and will get creamed by the next bus I try to pass.
I'll give you predictable. I passed a bus (the 40 or 45 in Cobb County) that was stuck in traffic looked the driver in the eye. Traffic cleared he passed me and I again made eye contact with the driver as he came past me then he right hooked into KSU with no indicator.
I Predicted the idiot would attempt to run me over and he did. I was just behind the rear axle of the bus when he did it.
I don't trust ANYTHING/ANYBODY to do what they should do. I know they are all trying to kill me.
