I spent years working in the Melbourne CBD, and on the several occasions where as a pedestrian I had to take evasive action, it was because of buses running red lights. Multiple times. You’d think it’d be couriers, or meth-heads, or emergency vehicles (who at least had an excuse). But no. Bloody buses.

Do they have quotas or some other pressure to reach the stop unreasonably quickly?
Also, another factor to consider - are the bicycle/pedestrian paths separated, possibly by a barrier?
