Payback suggestions

I was walking along Aungier St (Dublin) today minding my own business when a bus seemed to come driving in towards the footpath even though there was a big puddle on the road. Then WHOOSH .. water all over me, mud on my face, phone/hair/shoes soaked etc. I looked like a drowned rat and a man close by (who also got sprayed a bit) stopped to see if I needed help.

Another bus came by about a minute later and safely avoided the puddle, and did not cause a mini tsunami like the first gob****e did. Anyway, I'd like to get the bad bus driver back.
I made a wish that a junkie would bite his face today* but the more I think of it, the more I think that's just not good enough. I have my phone off and drying out at the moment as the sound has been a bit weird since it happened. My clothes have been washed and so have I! But I'm still a bit annoyed at him.

Suggestions?

*The junkie should be in good health with no nasty diseases, I'm not that cruel.

Report it, it's assault.

It was obviously karma, what we want to know is what you did that was so ****ty that you got drenched by a huge puddle!!!

Get on his bus and give him the fare in 1 cent coins, then proceed to hit the stop button for every stop but don't get off.

Or if that's too wild, fire bomb the bus, passengers or no passengers on board is your choice.

Pray the puddle away!

Get a jackhammer and go out tonight and dig a twenty foot hole in the puddle, then wait around him for him beside it tomorrow.

Kill his parents and feed them back to him in a delicious chilli.

Get onto the cops, report him for dangerous driving. Then get onto Dublin Bus or whoever the company was an report him there asking if they will cover the cost of the cleaning bills. Say you have a withness and good is..........

Did it myself about 6 months ago after the uncle told me it happened to himself and my grandmother just off O`Connel St. as she was on her way to a docotors appointment.
Told them if action wasnt taken i would be getting onto my local TD, Senators and the papers. She got a very nice call telling her the driver had been warned about his driving style and later got a letter of apology.

I dunno. You could try getting over it.

Oh this is good to know. I like all of the above jokes but on a serious note, it did wreck my plans. I was meeting family for dinner and was damp and cold the whole time so left as soon as I could.
I did try to ring Dublin Bus twice but only got an automated response. Would an email be as effective?
I know it sounds like a funny story (and the replies here are great) but I do feel it was totally avoidable and a really mean thing to do.

EDIT: I'm trying Pizza man, I'm trying.

Get the bus company to pay for your cleaning costs. Simple.

Bus w#nker! And for a change, it's not the passenger this time.

Had a relative many many years ago who got soaked by a car that drove on. She was carrying plastic bags of shopping and emptied out one of them filled it with water from the puddle. The guy that soaked her was stuck in traffic so she walked up knocked on his window and when he rolled it down she dropped the bag of water in on his lap.

You don't know my relative she's not one to be crossed.

what number was the bus

The_Valeyard

Good chance this would be caught on camera.

See if you can get the evidence and give us all a look of what happened.......purely to help you of course :P

It was the 16. Another 16 went by about a minute later and did not splash anyone.
