"SBS supposed to be an improvement and since it costs far more to operate, it only makes sense that for it to be successful, it should outperform other routes. I guess common sense is not one of your strong points."
Performance can be measured in many ways. While ridership HAS risen on SBS lines in general, such is far from the only metric to use to judge success. It is just the metric we have most easily accessible to us.

"since it costs far more to operate"
Really? How much more? Wow! Another Allan Rosen unsubstantiated claim!!!

"If enforcement improves at any time even if it is not during the first year, of course it has to do with SBS. What else does it have to do with? If there is no enforcement of fare paying or the bus lanes and the system doesn't work at all, are you saying that enforcement if it exists or doesn't is unrelated to SBS? That would be utter ridiculous."

You still have no concept of what it means to isolate variables.


"I heard that the MTA will be producing B44 SBS results next month. I guess I should just ignore anything they say about what happened during the second year of operation according to you, because what happened during the second year has nothing to do with SBS."
It has nothing to do with the SBS changes, no. Lets call the effects of SBS "X" AX > BX holds true for whatever X is as long as A > B. AX < BX holds true for whatever X is as long as A < B. AX = BX holds true for whatever X is as long as A = B.
