Posted by randyo on Fri Dec 15 17:29:07 2017, in response to FastTrack nonsense., posted by BrooklynBus on Fri Dec 15 15:35:21 2017. I don’t know if it will work for you, but I use a different method of tracking a bus I’m waiting for. I go on to the entire route, which shows the location of all the buses on the line and which auto refreshes every 60 sec. It’s almost like watching a subway model board in a signal tower. I then track the progress of the bus as it approaches my stop. I have occasionally experienced buses showing up even if they aren't indicated on the Bustime app and I haven’t been able to figure out why it happens. I have also experienced busses showing a few stops away and the simply disappearing but for the most part, I find that tracking the bus along the route is better than following the number of minutes away it supposed to be. As fo the operator saying not to trust Bustime or anything the MTA says, the Bustime app is basically a GPS and while there may be occasional glitches like the ones I mentioned, I found it pretty accurate, at least the way I use it. |
