As one who can't stand second hand smoke, it would have been difficult for me to endure sitting near someone smoking a cigarette and I can't escape. Obviously as a passenger I would have been risking mt life saying something. The guy in your business would have probably either gotten odd the bus or put the cigarette out once he figured out the cops were coming. Letting him slide put other's health at risk and embolden him to do it again with another driver. You didn't have to interact with him anymore once he gave you the finger. If you don't mice the bus, and call the cops gw qull think twice about lighting up ib a bus again. Ie maybe he want to go to jail to have a place to stay.

I thought he stayed on the bus. If you told him he couldn't smoke and he got OFF THE BUS IMMEDIATELY , then I don't understand rge suspension UNLESS you saw him smoking earlier and didn't say anything about it until he was getting off the bus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cplanner13 Posted December 20, 2023 Report Share Posted December 20, 2023 What do the two red circles represent on the maps that are hung in CTA’s bus shelters? Are they half-mile and mile radii/radiuses from the location? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tcmetro Posted December 20, 2023 Report Share Posted December 20, 2023 If anything that looks like 3/8 and 3/4 miles to me. I think it's a visual aid more than a distance radius. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a few in any thread that mentions crowded situations. Chicagobus.org has pics of artics on 52. 54, 66, 53 you MIGHT find a stray pic but the garage that runs those routes carried artics for very short amounts of time. I know there's older pics of MAN artics on archer but I don't think anyone posted any recent ones. You can find artics on 62 in PM rush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can find artics on 62 in PM rush thanks, i just really wanna find some pics around the time of covid on those routes. it was fantastic having the artics on cicero especially, i know the ridership doesnt justify it, but it was fun for me personally, and was something different.

I wonder if there is enough space south of Armstrong Ave. or they would have to reroute Armstrong Ave., but anything depends on the electrification plan, and FG is last in priority.
