A NJ Transit Idea

[wwcitizen]

Here's an idea for the fucking NJ Transit, which apparently doesn't train its bus drivers on how NOT to inflict dislocated disks in its passengers backs. OH MY GOD!!! This bus driver today overshot the bus stop by 20 feet because he was going too fast. His braking constantly jostled passengers into each other over and over, causing many sideways glances. THEN on our trip down the mountainous Gorge Road, he barely used the brakes at all, heading down at break-neck speed. At the bottom of the hill, we smelled the brakes from his having to hold back from hitting other traffic. Wonder what his wife did to him this morning for him to be so pissed at the world (and us passengers). He's typically a nice fellow, but today we flew down River Road hitting every major pothole and bump - as if he were aiming at them. At one point, bouncing into the ceiling from my seat, I exclaimed, "Dude!!!" to no one in particular. The girl next to me said, "Yeah, it's like he thinks he's driving his sports car!".

Here's another idea: Make the bus drivers sit in the back of a double bus while another driver flies down River Road in Weehawken at 50 miles an hour. See how many survive without an injury or a careen into the ceiling. UGH!!
