    Yeah, I also had a bus driver pass me ON THE RIGHT on a downhill (I was going about 51 kph), pushing me into the opposing lane of traffic (which was momentarily empty, thankfully). It was also a double bus, which created quite the draft.

    If you can take note of the bus # or licence plate or something, it's worth calling your transit authority. "My" bus driver's supervisor was happy to "educate" the faulty driver.
