The city isn't turning a blind eye at all, and there's no bullying. There's a conversation going on between the city and the private companies involved, in fact. They recognize that the coaches aren't permitted to use Muni stops, but there is currently no better solution - to eliminate them would greatly increase road traffic or choke Muni with the increased passengers.

This is a highly complex issue and you cannot pick on just one player. It doesn't help anyone.



Of course it's bullying.

The private companies have been violating traffic laws, repeatedly, for years.

They know what they are doing is against the law, but they keep on doing it.

Any impact on road traffic or Muni has got nothing do with the above violation of the law.


Just to be clear - you advocate fining UCSF for a decade of back-fines as well, right? Since their shuttles do the same thing.

Or are we only ok with bullying the tech companies back?
