What cheeses me off

I still don't get how that happened @TheRealTMA

Apparently she swerved to avoid some idiot who cut across her path (whose been fined $700 for driving without DC&A) then was going far too fast to take the corner. Hit the island curb which lifted the car into the side of the bus. Extremely lucky bus empty and that there was a bus not another car.

Still incomprehensible that she just didn’t use the brake pedal instead of the accelerator.

Wow @TheRealTMA !
Though panic can set in very quickly and your reflex action isn't what is intended- I've seen it a few times in hospital and supermarket car parks when folks get flustered.

WCMO is people who are oblivious of holding other people up by being incredibly leisurely and disorganised when they board a flight - particularly a delayed one.

And the twerp at HBA security today. Gone through the scanner thing, getting dressed at the finish end of the tub conveyor. God - 2 x metal studded boots, bunch of bangles etc; metal studded belt, other stuff, trench coat, hat ... OK - that's his wardrobe, but he was taking so long that the conveyor coming out of the x-ray had to stop because the tubs (all now empty - everyone else had collected their stuff and moved on) were backing up because he was stopped on the end & they couldn't go through to the collector. I collected some tubs to make room, pointedly walked close around him and dumped them into the collector next to him. He just continued in his own little world.

Finally, trench coat and funny hat on, he stepped back - to be called over to 'secondary' where another of his bags needed a second look. God knows what they found there. Wish I took a picture.

I was wondering that too. First up I'm glad no-one was hurt. But then being able to launch a Toyota Yaris like that, a car that has never been mentioned as 'high performance', airborne into the side of a bus is something that should be in a Bond movie, or failing that an episode of Ride or Die.

Yes but QLD drivers hate to use the brake pedal. If you join traffic quickly, the car ( particularly 4x4s) seem unable to lift foot off accelerator fir 30 seconds or use brake but just sit on horn then tailgate because you have had the audacity to use part of their road.
