It is NOT safe to be on the streets of San Fran when Muni drivers are nearby.
"In one case, a Muni operator was sleeping while his light-rail vehicle was on automatic through the Market Street subway. In another, an operator left a vehicle to buy a snack from a store. And on another day, five out of 13 vehicles observed passing through a school zone were speeding.
These instances were among dozens of safety violations outlined in the inspection reports released last week by the California Public Utilities Commission, the regulatory agency that oversees rail and light-rail transit agencies in the state."
A driver was SLEEPING--was he fired? No information.
I bet the driver is a bribe paying union member--you can't fire those types.
There needs to be a warning sign on the Bay and Golden Gate Bridges--Muni drivers may be sleeping proceed with caution.
