Seattle has partions since Mark McLaugin was murdered and his bus drove off a bridge in the mid 90's, DC Metro has now started to use them too after assauts on employees rose. The MTA makes us fend for ourselfs, "Partions obstruct view" or "They're not customer freindly" I had an incident similar in nature ealier this year on the BxM1. A girl didn't pay her fare and then came up and asked for a transfer. I told her we cant print x-fers on express buses. Our faresets in Yonkers were changed and have no ability to issue transfers. She became enraged and threatend me and demand that the passengers give her money. I pulled over and took the bus out of service and was allowing the other passengers to exit, to keep them safe as per procedure and she physcally prevented anyone from leaving the bus, and demanded money, I asked Bus Command Center to call the police. The BCC never called the police. She held everyone on the bus even after I identified myself as an Auxiliary Police Officer, until a supervisor came in ex-NYBS supervisor car which looked like a police car and she took off. |
