This issue has been going on since I started as a driver back in the late 70's in Brooklyn. Politicians called and economic stabilizer then. A help to the community for the poor service received by the T.A. I worked out of Flatbush and it was widespread on Flatbush, Utica, Nostrand and even Remsen. The B2 started getting them in the early 1980s to E16 St station during a.m. rush. The B42 was the only line immune because it was onefare. The B49 never got hit then because it really wasn't a heavy commuter line. Schools and Colleges were the big carries. This issue will go on forever no matter what is made of it. I just remember getting cutoff pulling into bus stops. Any accident with a dollar van they took off or and yes it did happen they abandoned the vehicle right there. |
