Algoa Bus nearly rear-ended me whilst speeding

I just want to send out a warning to all to be on the look out for Algoa Buses. I was nearly rear-ended on Friday approximately 18h00 in William Street (Newton park) when a speeding Algoa Bus drove towards me whilst I was busy stopping at the stop street (William Rd / Shirley St). If I didn't look in my rear-view mirror, he would of struck me with a massive impact. He overtook me and the stop street and sped on. I managed to get his reg. number and "hows my driving number" - when I phoned the number, it said "press one for complaints" which I did, but then it said "number not available". This is unacceptable. I really do not know how they can place a driver like that behind the steering wheel of a bus - I don't care what his reason was, but he placed my life (and possibly others' lives) in danger due to his selfishness. William street is next to Cotswold Primary - what if there were children walking around (waiting to be fetched) or animals in the area? He is reckless - get him off our streets! Reg number either DMS244 / DMS245 (I was in shock and managed to get DMS244 on my phone, but for some reason think I read it ending with a 5 instead).
