A verbal altercation involving a cyclist and a Regional Transit bus driver at occurred Monday at Sac State University.
A Regional Transit route 30 bus was heading from down town J Street to the CSUS campus when an unidentified cyclist pulled up alongside the bus at a red light on J & 49th.
According to passenger Allison Hertz, the cyclist was angry about the bus driver's maneuvering and felt that he needed to confront the driver directly.
"The guy on the bicycle came up (to the bus) and hit the drivers window, and then proceeded to cut in and out in front of the bus," said Hertz.
When the driver docked the bus at Sac State, the cyclist was already at the bus curb waiting to exchange words with the driver.
After a 15-seconds of yelling at each other, the cyclist left the scene and was heard yelling "I'm going to have your job," in front of dozens of passengers and bystanders.
For many, this was the first altercation involving a Regional Transit driver of the semester, but for Hertz, it was the first she had ever witnessed.
"I can honestly say that I have never seen that in all my times riding the bus."
