    If you were the victim of the lothian busses #63 SN04 NGZ which squeezed passed a cyclist at the airport roundabout/a8 on-slip around 8:30 this morning, that was the worst over-take I've seen from a bus. It made me jump, and I was safe inside.

    It was also a futile overtake, traffic was stationary 100 metres further on.

    I've made a complaint to lothian busses about it.

    "I've made a complaint to lothian busses about it."

    Good for you.

    I complained about a close overtake on Saturday (I was on a bike), bus caught up with stationary traffic in about 2 bus lengths!

    Driver very unrepentant.

    Got a phone call for more details yesterday.

    Interestingly the guy said 'video kept for 7 days' - which 'we' know - BUT 'or 5 days'.

    Don't know if that meant some buses have less camera memory or some do more time on the road, (or ?).

    So if you are going to report something do it quickly.

    "Don't know if that meant some buses have less camera memory or some do more time on the road,"

    An insider tells me "Yes" and "Yes".
