Crowded Buses

Share

Perhaps if the MTA officials and their attorneys had to ride their own bus system during rush hour to get to and from their jobs, they might have a better understanding that a target of no more than 15 passengers standing on a bus is still unacceptable. Nevermind the condition the buses themselves are in. Several times I have ridden on buses where everyone was crowded in the aisle in the front of the bus and with good reason--the back exit door did not work.

Of course that would be similar to programs where courts sentence slumlords to live in their own buildings until repairs are made. Hmmmm--I’ll bet those targets would be met a lot faster. A lot faster.
