5. Re: Bus Vs. One Lucky Cyclist In China. Jun 13, 2007, 11:29 Zathrus
 
that is the right side of the screen, not left

Well, if you want to be pedantic then it was the middle of the screen. But saying "left side" draws your eye to the far side of the street, which is where it happens.

Second, there seemed to be room behind the white minivan, with this bus sliding out of control at you and you are stopped, I dunno...maybe put it in reverse and get more room?

Well, yeah, and after the jump the minivan either backed up or the bus moved forward (hope not!), since it looks like the bus taps the minivan's front bumper. But also realize that they're showing it slowed down for the majority of the clip, so the minivan didn't have a whole lot of time to do much of anything.

And, honestly, backing up is probably a bad idea in general -- if there's any traffic behind you, they're expecting to stop just before hitting you -- backing up makes them hit you, which will probably push you into the bus since your brakes are no longer engaged.

Honestly, I'd just be praying "don't tip over onto me".
