WARNING!! DO NOT EVER USE ANY BUS SERVICES PROVIDED BY TRAXX COACHLINES!!
On Sunday Aug 13, 2017 at 9:30pm, I encountered a Traxx Coachlines bus driver driving recklessly on Cambie St and West 18th Ave in Vancouver, BC over a parallel parking incident with passengers inside his bus! I was patiently waiting for a street parking spot on the middle lane when the parked car driver was leaving. During the max 20 seconds wait, the Traxx driver honked me multiple times (over 10 times) and flashed at me using the his high beams. While he had more than enough room and time to pull out of the lane to the left and move on, he decided to tailgate my car when I wanted to parallel park after the parked car left. Originally, I thought he was just accidentally followed my car since he braked pretty hard when I stopped for the parallel park, so I moved forward and ensured that he had, once again, enough room to pull over to the left lane. What shocked me was that he didn't pull to the left, but instead, he tailgated my car again and flashed at me multiple times. He almost rammed my car! I got out of my car and tried to talk to him, but he refused. I could also see that the passengers in the car tried to talk to him as well, but he refused to do so and took his phone out to make phone calls (he was still on the road when he was talking on the phone, which is actually illegal in BC). A lot of witnesses saw the incident and everyone was shocked that a professional driver that Traxx Coachlines trained have such driving behaviour. This shows a lot how Traxx trains their drivers and I warn everyone who is thinking about using their service - THINK TWICE! You have been warned!
