Some drunk homeless guy was wobbling around the aisles on a moving VTA bus, fell and cracked his head and got a concussion from bumping his noggin on a grab-bar or something. Some advocacy or outreach scamgroup ( NAACP? UCLA? ACLU??? ) is now suing for millions of dollars prompting a new freedom grab against the populace
Now they are releasing a plan to install booster seats on the busses with
mandatory3-point harnesses that you wear, you can get a seatbelt ticket if you're not wearing it just like in a car. They are going to add more compliance staff to basically go around the different routes on the busses to write tickets but they say "oh its just going to be a warning for now but at the officers discretion" .
What you will look like riding a bus soon ^
Estimated public expenditures to retrofit all the gubmint busses in the state ( doesn't include stuff like Greyhound ) is "in the low 900 millions".
Damn ni🅱️🅱️a , that's a lot of booster seats and seatbelts...
I wonder if they are going to put a seatbelt sign that chimes 100 times during the ride like on an aeroplane . I know some of you gonts might be too young to remember it, but there used to be some freedom in this country
