He could've easily passed the bus if he really wanted to but just doing it for the views and to make CTA look bad. Just read the comments.

I know I’m not the only persin that can see that and it’s best to just let the bus make that move especially when you’re dumb enough to hang in the kill zone of a large vehicle. I guess he forgot the fundamental “if you can’t see my mirror I can’t see you” rule I most definitely go by that if I cant see a trucker or a bus driver in their mirrior & im on the side of them I flash my light race pass an or drop back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically kept saying "where is it written". It won't matter where it's written if you end up in an accident with the bus. My grandmother told my mother this and my mother told me, the bus and train always win.

What's the most shocking of all is how did the steering wheel get pulled out from the center? If the bus was moving and there had to be a turn coming up, that would be a disaster if the driver didn't stop in time. Thankfully (I hope) everyone is okay.

Let me know if i have this right. A CTA bus driver allegedly pulled out a gun on his passenger. At some point, the police arrived. The driver either had put away the gun or was attempting to adjust the gun in his pants when the gun discharged. One bullet hit him. Another bullet went through the steering column, dislodged the steering wheel and possibly went through the windshield. Does that sound about right? I'm waiting for this to hit the news. The question is how whether a cta driver will or won't be packing when they are driving on duty for CTA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question is how whether a certain person will or won't be packing when they are driving on duty for CTA? From what I've been hearing from the Chirps around the garage was this operator did indeed pull a gun out on a passenger that they had a history with in the past. I believe CPD arrived after the shots were fired on the bus. I'm not entirely sure if there were more than two shots discharged but I will say that by no means should any operator have a gun while on duty at any point. Also the photo below is from a different incident out of 74th on 63rd street from what I was told. I wasn't given to much detail on what went on with the steering wheel dislodging itself like that.

I think that operator was all fired up!! As crazy as it sounds if the operator has a conceal and carry permit legally they can carry a weapon on a bus. Whether cta allows that is yet to be seen. This really makes me want to ride cta!! Probably Id say that is an ex operator but the world is so crazy you never know. Depends if the weapon was used for intimidation or defense.

Illinois law prohibits anyone with a CCW permit to carry on the CTA or Metra. Only the cops can be armed on buses & trains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After posting earlier , I thought about those two things being separate incidents. While I understand why CTA drivers, or any bus drivers shouldn't have firearms, i certainly understand why a driver would feel like he has to have one. Drivers get cursed out, spat on, hit, etc. The driver is a sitting duck. We've seen drivers knockout passengers, body slam passengers. Drivers have been carjacked at work. That driver will probably be fired, but he will live. Being fearful for his life made him resort to bringing a weapon. But in this case he was the aggressor. The days we are in now shows it takes very little for something to escalate into a shooting. Better him than me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
