There is a big difference between theory and practice. While SBS may sound great theoretically in the way it affects drivers changing modes to bus, what happens in practice is what is important not the theory. Thus far in NYC there is zero evidence that SBS caused anyone to switch from their car to the bus. For that to happen a hell of a lot more would be required than simply adding exclusive bus lanes for SBS.

As far as you experience with SBS being an improvement, I respect your opinion. However, it as to be beneficial to most, before we can conclude it is a success. There are many problems and they need to be addressed, not ignored. That is the major point. Thus far no one is addressing any of the negative points. You might agree it is not perfect, but DOT and the MTA have yet to admit this. To keep going to new communities denying any problems experienced elsewhere just to get approval, is just being dishonest.
