Without knowing the exact situation, in general, I agree with the bus driver's improvisation here. I doubt the bus came barrell-assing through the light like a maniac, and am assuming that he calmly just pulled a nice little maneuver that perhaps caught you off guard. MAybe you turned directly into the right lane or something, or maybe there was only one land and the guy essentially screwed you out of your rightful place in line. Whatever the case, when it comes to a full bus in rush hour, moves like this keep things going, and it keeps asses in the bus seats, which keeps cars off the roads.
A move like that reminds me of what happenes in Italy when there's heavy volume going one direction, and light volume in the other direction... The side with the heavy volume just takes over a lane or two of the light volume side. No fancy overhead X symbols, no cops directing it, cars just take over, and the people on the light volume side understand that it's for the greater good, and move the f*** over. It truly is a beautiful thing to witness.
