No ticket for a bus driver driving into the side of someone who has the right of way?

Did you not read the aricle?
I have seen how some of these bus drivers drive those buses and it's not pretty. One time one was making a left turn into Parkside and part of the bus was still in MY travel lane. I'm sure there are fine bus drivers out there but the bad ones make you all look bad. And Lord bless ya, that is one job I would never be able to do....and stay outta jail. I'm old school and would 'correct' some of those kids, which I am sure is against the law nowadays.
