Nah, I’m just a big pussycat!

I can understand entirely how that could be the case. However, one of the most fun parts of the job is seeing the look of sheer terror on the faces of motorists and their passengers as you come through a gap that you know you can make.
Any help that we get on the road is very much appreciated but it can get a little frustrating when car drivers hold you up by manouevring to get out of your way even though you know that you could have made it through the gap.
>>Buses also tend to pull up very close to the vehicle in front.
Yup, I’m guilty of that one. I have no idea why, as I have had ‘tyres and tarmac’ drummed into me over the years. I guess it’s just a bad habit that I’ve got into.
