@ rigel,

not if it is widespread, company-wide, which it most certainly is.

whether i am driving or bicycling, i am more often then not aggressively cut off by CT transit buses. i've called the company to complain about specific events before but it is pretty exhausting.

This is absolutely wide-spread. CT Transit Drivers as a group are the most dangerous faction on our streets. They constantly speed, to the delight of their supervisors who see that as a form of job loyalty. Also, I have been right-hooked more than a few times by CT Transit buses, which is illegal and more importantly, it's careless and arrogant. We definitely need a concerted effort to check these fools.

I think CT Transit would be willing to work with Elm City Cycling to train their drivers on how to interact with bicycle riders. This would be a good project for the education committee.

As for cutting off, bus drivers are normally trained to stay in the right-hand lane (unless they are turning left). Is there a particular street where this is happening? I can say for sure that every CT Transit bus I have seen on Elm Street has stuck to the right-hand lane (and therefore could not possibly cut off anyone).
