I've actually driven bang road down them ramps at Grainger Town last year. Mainly due to the fact they had one direction closed for repairs, so they had temp lights to ensure the car park could still be accessed. It was rather odd to say the least.

An idiot was riding a mobility scooter on the bus lane on Newbridge street at the end of Byker Bridge this afternoon
Some idiot in a Fiesta going up Newgate Street past The Gate when the signs say buses and Taxis only, also someone pressing the bell on 10B at Eldon Square Bus Station when it's a terminus

(25 Oct 2016, 3:44 pm)Brian13 I don't normally press the bell but I got a complaint from a E1 driver as I didn't press the bell upstairs on 19644. He drove straight past Shields market terminus and parked in the layover and said you still need to press the bellWorst is when people expect the bus to stop at a major stop and don't press the bell and remain seated, everyone expects the buses to stop at Aycliffe Town Centre but I was on a late running 5/5A one day, no alert for passengers wishing to alight, no passengers wishing to board at the stop, so driver drove straight past the stop, thought he was going to get lynched by the passengers for not stopping.

Further to the above,
Unamused old woman as driver on the X30 drove straight past the stop she wanted to be off in Dunston, she was still partly on the seat and hadn't pressed the bell, despite her hand being just below it, so driver drove past the stop, probably would have passed the next one had somebody not boarded at the next stop
Just gone past a cyclist on the A1 near the Angel of the North. Pretty sure that it is illegal to go down the stretch of the A1 by the Low Fell turn off that the X21 comes off at.

(31 Oct 2016, 10:40 am)Andreos1 That section isn't motorway, so I am guessing it is legal. Dunno if I would do it like.
However this muppet is a definite contender for 'numpty of the day'

(31 Oct 2016, 11:05 am)UJimmi Just realised that he could have come off the junction before Low Fell which isn't motorway, got confused with the Washington junction. Still wouldn't want to try it like!
Think I need to stop posting in this thread, as I just seem to make myself look a numpty each time I post.

Someone walked in front of a Toonlink at the pedestrian crossing today at Eldon Square, bus just missed them and blasted the horn at them and before they were went into the bus station they just stopped and stared at the bus as it passed when it was their fault as if to say what u beeping at.
2nd one today is someone decided it would be sensible to park right at the entrance/exit of Metrocentre bus station by the roundabout to drop off someone and block the traffic from passing them which the bus beeped them as it couldn't get out and further along parked in the bus lane was a taxi so had to go round that as well.

Wanted to be off the X12 at the stop on Durham Road near North Tees Hospital, a old bloke was getting off the bus in front of me but for some reason saw that a wheelchair user was wishing to board the bus, so instead of getting off the bus, he let the wheelchair get on! Problem with this was we were in the aisle blocking the way, once the wheelchair had boarded and got into the wheelchair bay, it looked like he was also going to let the rest of the intending passengers get on before he departed but of course I disagreed with this idea, got past him and got off the bus, passengers looked more confused than anything but I felt it was still worth pointing out that the old bloke was to blame, not me!
