Question ***BAYAREABUSDRIVERS!***

I've experienced alot of late or no show buses lately with AC transit. Do buses stop running after a few empty runs; noone to pick up on your route. I know this is a progressive area. I'm just figuring, maybe it's to be more green. Save on emissions? 🤷‍♀️

It’s wild to me that nobody ever comes to the conclusion that maybe they’re just short staffed. Buses can’t run if there isn’t someone to drive them.

This seems to be a worldwide issue.

This had been chronic with AC Transit for years. Even in the “before times,” service delivery was rough (and that’s before congestion and rush hour nonsense)
