While I dont condone it nor am I excusing him, it doesn't look like his vision is completely obscured, looks like he can see to his right and straight ahead, his left hand side being obscured...

Did you take this photo? if so, wheres it at? Is it somewhere in Durham?

I believe it is at the Roundabout the Bus Station entrance is situated on in Durham.

Looks like the North Road roundabout to me.

Roundabout on entrance to the bus station. Before the exit to North Road.

I returned to Durham yesterday, as my last visit, the images corrupted.

Here we see Fuckyoffy III enjoying his day on the 57s.

I would report him mate...

There is absolutely no need for that, his behaviour is disgusting if you ask me

I've had a couple of incidents recently -

1. At S.Shields, woman driver gave me the middle finger whilst driving the 88
2. At S.Sheilds, bloke driving a Renown on the 27 told me I was encroaching on his privacy
3. Again at S.Shields, again driving the 27, driver told me to 'Fuck off right now'

That's polite , I would have just simply said 'make me', I mean what is the driver going to do, he can't exactly jump off the bus and kick the shit out of you or mow you down or owt like that...

Some people make me laugh, going on like a criminal offence has been committed...

It is also funny when ya get funny looks, never really had it myself, but some people look like they have caught you in there raping and wanking off the dog

Agree with that Aurelion, I am sure his Arriva bosses will be calling him into the office for a chat and if he is lucky tea and biscuits

Been in the middle of having a Dump in a Supermarket when the cleaner then shouts is anyone is in, finishing off your Business but then not flushing the toilet, or alternatively causing a Blockage by using an overly excessive amount of Toilet Roll and leaving the cleaner to sort it after you have departed  .

Not to mention kicking the door in for good cause....

My kinda thing that...When I do things like that, it is one of those 'Don't breath through the nose' moments

On a booze cruise to Luxembourg years ago, on the way home we stopped at a truck stop at Grantham or Retford, there was only one toilet open(disabled one), I made sure I got in first as my guts were going like a fast cycle in a washing machine, went in, pebble dashed the pot and left laughing my back off because at least 5 others were waiting to use it after me...

We had a rule on the bus for the toilet 'Pissing is fine, but strictly No solids or anything runny in the toilet' and I have said in the past if producing smelly farts was a sport I would be in the world top 10 every year

It isn't as bad as that Gateshead Central Taxis driver 

I certainly didn't enjoy the time I was give the middle finger at Durham Bus Station by an Arriva driver.

I've had more GNE drivers give rude gestures or hiding behind running boards etc. than Arriva drivers and I spend most of my time getting photos of Arriva buses. It really depends what drivers are driving at the time really.

Tbh that GCT driver is probably the worst!

If I'm honest I think Gateshead Central Taxis only have one decent driver, and that's Les who drives the Sainsbury's Shuttle.

You spend most of your time in the nice parts of the region though! Well, in terms of friendly drivers.

Have you ever?
Had a driver drive so slow your going to kill yourself if you don't get off?  I have millions of times

the worst 2 ive ever had was ages ago

1. last year on a Belmont Pulsar all the way from Newcastle to Middlesbrough driver never got above 15 mph apart from the section between Chester and Pity Me where he done 30!!!
but what made it worse is he was driving so eco friendly, ive never heard a Pulsar change so early...............it wasn't in limp mode or anything, just the driver putting the slightest touch on the pedal.

2. This was years ago when 22021 was at Shields, from the Town centre to Chichester I had a decent driver but then changed drivers and the driver never got above 13 or something
yes 13 was the fastest he did and also when braking kept going on and off the brake, jerking everyone back and forth  supposd to take 20 mins to my stop but took 40 instead
everyone was annoyed with the driver.

Im sure everyone has stuff like this but have any been worse than mine?
