You're right. But there are shoddy drivers ^[and people who are in too much of a hurry to realise they are trapping themselves] everywhere.
Just that when the shoddy driver is in a bus, it has a much higher impact.
Bus lanes didn't really fix the problem here, due to them being too inconsistent. So now those lanes just tend to be the slowest lane and the busses use the faster lanes ^[this is not a rule thing, just happened as busses didn't care enough about the bus lane and others went into the empty lane they saw].
Specially in this rainy season.
When the slow traffic is caused by cars, I know it will be fine in ~10 minutes.
When I see trucks and busses, I am re-routing.
IMO, they need to be around the same level of drivers to make said decision.
If the car drivers in question were any better, they would think "there is only a single car space in the target lane" and not jump the yellow, because that would cause that section to clear later (I, on a bicycle wouldn't go ahead). The 3rd driver in this case, just realised there was no space, so didn't go forward.
The only difference is that the bus driver (who needs to be better than the car driver to prevent similar stuff) caused the current junction to be blocked, just because of the vehicle size, causing other paths (which were free before) to now be jammed too.
I was told in my childhood that a driving license for larger vehicles had more stringent requirements. Guess that's not the case anymore. But it doesn't change the fact that one actually needs to be a better driver to be driving a bus. ⇒ More money expected ⇒ More passengers needed, lest the better driver will leave and the bus company will hire a cheap one.

metalbags
metal, semi-metal, plastic, fibre-glass.
If you just talk about the material of the bag, yes, it is mostly metal and plastic. The costlier the stuff, the more the metal.
=\= is understood in text format
Not very sure about that. If it were me, I would go with =/= instead, due to the "not equal" sign having the slant that way. I also remember having used =|= somewhere.
Also, the forward slash is considered a text character, whereas backslash, a special character / escape character / compose character in different conditions.
I dont even have the last symbol you typed on my phone neither keyboard
For a keyboard user, it's probably a good idea to get a compose key setup for stuff such as ≠°×∵∴ and the rest. That way you don't have to copy paste those things all the time.
For Android, depending upon what keyboard you use, you might want to get an addon. In case of the default GBoard, long-press the '=' key, and you will find ≠.
For iOS, good luck.
Well, it does say "15 or fewer subjects".
So, not much of an expectation
Isn't midnight supposed to be in the mid of the night?
