Bus story

Getting on the bus, the driver lowered the front of the bus for me. Lowering the bus is called kneeling. The bus kneels for old and impaired people. I got on the bus, put in my $.35 senior fare, while saying “I’m not that old that you need to make the bus kneel”. “Then I’d better check your ID” she replied to loud laughter from the riders.bus.JPG

Many of our new buses have a sign that tells the intersection of the next stop. Getting more like Tokyo.
