Hi Every one,now i have seen polls on here BUT whats your opinion on these happenings

yes,i hope you are looking
is it or was it,a sixth sense,or anticipation
but whatever the incidents happend had i been there or not
while i was driving a TRACKY bus
the first one
it was a Friday morning
it was a most horrible morning
a howling gale force wind i was to have a driving test
it was my second time of rejoining the trackies
i had left the tracky depot,in a double decker
with the inspector on board making for the Bus sation
as i said a howling gale force wind
i had to stop at the Lights on park road
whilst waiting i spotted a lady pushing a pram
it would be about 10 am ish
i could see she was strugging
also i new she would have trouble going past the end house
into a gap
the lights changed
i set off at a crawl
as she entered the gap
Whoosh,the wind took hold of the pram
snatched it from her hand
and tipped it upside down
right in front of my Bus
fortunatley it was a well made pram and the bairn was unharmed

the second incident,was when i was early morning
taking the day shift to Houghton main
it was winter time very cold,no sign of any frost
until, i left Ardsley,and as we hit the open area
a line of frost, i arrived at houghton pit
and had to wait for the Night shift
round about ten past six i set off back to Tarn
as approached that line of frost,
i eased off my accelerator
and sure enough,
a army Motor cycle, coming from ardsley
hit the Frosty road,
and he lost it,i saw man and byke leave each other
the Byke came and hit my radiator THUMP
i had stopped by now
the Cyclist ,came sliding and went with his legs under the Bus
well partly
i knew there were traffic coming from darfield
i ran down the road to stop the traffic
the miners pulled himout from under the bus
do you know he did not have a scratch
he was wearing one of those pilot looking suits with helmet and googles
but we took him to the bus station
the tracky took him for check to Hospital
he was ok
BUT,he was on his way from french leave
back to Kirton Lindsay

now the third incident, i cant really account for this
it was April,i was on the Huddersfield ,via Kirkburton run
a cold and frosty saturday morning
about 10 oclockish
the Bus was full to standing a t Kirkburton
now ,because,of having to run to time
there was no need to put the foot down
i was doing about 20/25 ish
enjoying the ride
as i was passing STORRS HALL.
the road very wide
approaching me was a new car ,it was a Morris 11,00
a new type of vehicle then the transvere engine
when suddenly,it went out of control
it tipped over on its roof,and was coming towards me,diagonly
it missed my bus
i stoped,got out and half of my passengers were out
i could see the driver tryiing to get out
he was OK not hurt
, i told my passengers to get back on the BUS
and do you know i still arrived at Huddersfield with 5 mins to spare
and report it to the Police
never heard owt about it

Yes Windy i remember now,
i was on the Donny Mex
i was just stting off from the stand in the Bus station
and i saw in my mirror,heard a gasp
so stopped i had not gone 2 feet
what happened an old lady had come from behind and saw i was about to set off so she tride to get on the bus from the rear where she could not bee see
,once again she clung on and was ok
then there was the time i was on Nights
and we had to take the drivers conductoors home i was on the royston
and going down Laithes lane
i had stopped and dropped one person off
and as is et off the ball rang
i thought oh dear ive forgot some one
so banged the brakes on
and a heard clatter clatter and this driver came tumbling down the gang way
he was my next door Nieghbour a driver,i knew he was getting off at the next stop
but i thought i had left some one
he was having a bit of fun ringing the bell

very good driving - being very aware of the road, conditions and other motorists/pedestrians.
