Metro buses if you don't already know have the right of way so to speak and the drivers are always in the middle of the intersection when their light is red. Also if you ever drive Fifth Avenue, watch out for the idiot that crosses underneath the concrete supports to make that turn or get that parking space, many do so without even looking.
Ur right about the buses Harlan - A little known law was passed about 7 or 8 years ago: A bus waiting to pull into traffic only has to put on their signal and then they can pull out, w/o waiting to yield to oncoming traffic. That means if you can lock 'em up and not hit the car beside you, it's all good. I disagree, but it's the current law!
