Is METROBUS in Kuala Lumpur (KL) safe?

How safe is KL public transportation? I mean buses, taxis... Anyone?

I was nearly hit by the bus at the junction of Taman Rainbow and Jalan Ipoh...

How it happen?
I stopped and waited for the traffic light to turn green so that i could turn into Jalan Ipoh. It was June 17th 2012 around 3:10pm (Sunday afternoon), there was this reckless bus driver whom driving the METROBUS BJE6767. He DID NOT STOP even the traffic lights has turned red at his side more than one minutes. He accelerated and passed through the junction super fast . Luckily, i was a bit slow this evening to go out to the main road, otherwise i would be hit by the bus and high chances might not be able to write this post as the bus will hit my car side way on where i sat. My mom and i were shocked... It was a near missed.

Dear Minister of Transportation, before you encourage people go to work by bus, go out to the city by bus, please please and please make sure the drivers of the bus are not those reckless and ignorant on people safety...

I really disappointed on what happen to the situation in Malaysia... There are so many accident cases involved buses but i didn't see the Ministry of Transportation taking any serious action. I think we really need a drastic change to make this country a better place to live... what do you think?
