Me waiting any moment to see Trump declaring Public transports "Anti-American".

In San Francisco, we have a couple lanes like this for buses and taxis. We call them the red carpet. They helped improve bus efficiency and bus times. Our buses also have cameras that send tickets to cars using the lane.

Don't post images of headlines

It's blocked outside the US. Was happy for the screenshot - then I knew its worth turning on VPN

If there's regular buses running through there, I would be in favor of it. Just make sure it's not a single bus getting delayed all the time.
-
The American solution would be to mount monster truck tires and run over any cars delaying the bus.

Chaotic good

Is Only Bus like Only Fans?
edit: Corrected a word.

It's very popular.

Oh yeah, YY65VXK. I love dirty talk.

I was thinking of the scene from HIMYM where the Mother had cookies, but I like this interpretation, too.

If we could get something like this in Albany, NY next it would make me so happy.

But there's a catch - those buses are self-driving Tesla's workshopping roadrage simulation.

Oh no. First the congestion pricing, now this. They said that Giuliani turned NYC into a theme park back in the day. This nonsense is doing that for real now.

Ah yes, NYC drivers who are well known for following traffic markings.
Good thing the busses have freaking laser beams to get rid of the traffic
Finally, truck vaporizers for those pesky lane wanderers
does the bus have a fucking face mask on
are cameras installed on the buses?
When I lived in Portugal there was this cobblestone street in my bus commute that just fit one vehicle with some room. At least one every month the bus would be stuck there because someone parked "real quick" with a wheel up the sidewalk. People just don't care unless there's constant enforcement.
Public transit vehicles should have push bars like police cars do.
It doesn’t fit the space well but I do love seeing cars impaled on or simply stuck behind hydraulic bollards. I wonder if that could be implemented here.
It's automated with traffic cameras to give tickets
I’ll just leave the most recent example here (there are literally dozens like him)…
“A New York driver was identified in spring 2025 as the city's most reckless after a black Audi A6, driven by a driver named Dillon Wertz, accumulated 563 traffic and camera-issued tickets in 2024 alone, mostly for speeding. The vehicle's total violations reached 968, with fines potentially exceeding $58,000, though the driver had already paid over $46,000 at the time of the reports. Despite the high number of violations, the driver remains on the road and continues to drive recklessly”
Yeah and it’s in the center of three lanes. I can easily see someone forgetting they need to turn and then cutting over, but getting stuck in traffic and then the bus gets stuck behind it. Maybe should have put the bus lane next to the double yellow? (And then added one on the other side as well?)
