A great video…despite the conflicting information, which is at the heart of why it is difficult for the two to share the road. Bikes, never pass pass buses on the right, but instead slow and go around the left side. And bus drivers, if you see a bike on the right, slow down and let them pass. Doesn’t work too well. I guess this way, everyone will just slow to a stop…at least there’s a smaller chance of collision between two stopped objects.

That video is AWESOME. I really like that it emphasizes dual responsibility. There are a lot of situations where it’s easy to say to yourself “That car should see me” or “well, the turn signal’s not on” but really the safest thing to do is SLOW DOWN FOR LIKE 2 FRIGGIN SECONDS and make SURE it’s safe.
