Point to where the bike lanes hurt you.

Not to be that guy, but @thetransitbandit.bsky.social and I had a better bus disaster thread, tbh

This machine kills fascists. Every trip you take on public transit, even on diesel buses, reduces oil dependency. Buses are significantly more efficient than cars, and many agencies like King County Metro and TriMet have transitioned to renewable diesel, that doesn't get pumped from wells.

We know that nothing beats a slice of cheesecake, but how about five slices at five locations across San Diego County? That's right, we visited every Cheesecake Factory in the county: youtu.be/IpHZVT0sejc

I find this type of comment so elitist. It IS the most inconvenient and stressful form of long distance public transportation, yet people still use it in droves because they have no other choice. Are we going to just pretend that's not an insane class divide worth highlighting?

The Trump administration's proposal to eliminate the mass transit account of the Highway Trust Fund would be short-signed, ineffective, and ruinous, a new analysis finds.

To be fair, 2019 transit service had a lot of issues. But having that level of funding back again would be huge and we need to do that.

The Essential Air Service costs the US Government millions every year to subsidize flights to small airports, but is it really worth the money? Should we be subsidizing something else instead? Find out in my latest video: youtu.be/SBJX3u7sl_E

In my latest video, we talk about the three building blocks that go into any public transit, anywhere: frequency, span, and coverage. youtu.be/Nsu5GFdei5s

In my latest YouTube video, we set out to set a new speedrun record for riding the entire San Diego Trolley system, including all four lines! youtu.be/MD_cWhr8PNk?...

We are beyond disappointed in SDOT's proposals here. Their plan of "exploring future options like dedicated bus lanes once key congestion issues are addressed" is completely nonsensical. You can't just wave a magic wand and get rid of the congestion on Denny. Bus lanes ARE the solution.

Do you want to know how transit works, but you're not sure where to start? Through my new series, Transit 101, we'll work through what transit is, how it works, and all of your burning questions about public transit. The first video in the series is up now! youtu.be/P5eEgmhhD_4

Following an entire book of personal finance tips won't save the median american as much as simply moving near some frequent transit lines and selling their car. The problem is that most US urban areas don't have much frequent transit, and in the ones that do, there isn't enough housing nearby.

Bellevue, WA reminds me so much of where I live now (San Diego): car-dependent, small downtown with wide streets, light rail not living up to its potential (yet), chain restaurants, generally hostile to pedestrians and cyclists, and wealthier (and more NIMBY) than nearby large cities.

It’s a little sad to me that the annual Bellevue Arts Fair is hosted in the parking garage of the city’s downtown shopping mall.

My latest video took a hot minute to edit, because it’s really at least two video’s worth of adventure! Follow along as we head to two light rail openings in different cities in one weekend, all with no cars or airplanes! Featuring @alexdavistransit.bsky.social youtu.be/tbiKE9cUpqM

Ontario leadership claim "no one bikes" on their cities' paths — but the data shows otherwise.

Just saw someone’s car get towed and my family was feeling bad for them… am I an asshole for not feeling bad that they parked illegally and are now facing the consequences? They literally parked next to a no parking sign.

There are two kinds of environmentalists in California. They seem to live on different planets and are no longer able to communicate except by shouting. I'm for protecting natural places and endangered species by building cities more densely. Am I still an environmentalist?

I just watched an incredible video on the bus-rail debate and I think it’s super important that those of us involved in transit watch it. It challenges a lot of the misconceptions many of us have about transit, and shows why more transit is better than flashier transit. youtu.be/j5oFP_MLU9o?...

Most transit ads: Transit has your back! It is so much easier to take transit! Sound Transit ads: Look at this fucking idiot driving

This is getting pretty philosophical and I'm here for it! I think we need to interrogate if it matters that a large percentage of people in a political movement quietly hold the maximalist goal. Most immigrant rights activists would hypothetically vote for open borders if it was on the ballot. So?

nvm, our bus broke down in the middle of the desert 32.7427551, -115.9632887.

Two light rail openings in one weekend thanks to Tufesa Bus and Greyhound

I look a bit like a zombie in this but I do agree, Greyhound 💪

New train day is always a good day

Went to the @metrolosangeles.bsky.social LAX station opening! Just happened to coincide with being in LA Was nice running into @thetransitbandit.bsky.social, @suldrew.bsky.social, and @alexdavistransit.bsky.social

When urban densification doesn't accommodate lower-income residents, the result is bad for transit ridership. We need people of all incomes to be able to choose walkable places where transit can serve them efficiently. calmatters.org/housing/2025...

TransLink recently revealed an investment plan that fixes their once-dire fiscal cliff and even increases service. How did they do it, and what can other cities learn from their approach? Find out in my latest YouTube video: youtu.be/1gie5HXRvq8

The Republican budget plan will clearly increase homelessness and public misery, which will then be blamed on the leaders of big cities. This is an old game.

It's been a minute since I posted a YouTube video - but I'm back! Sticking with my trend of super commuting, I show you all my Californian super commute here in San Diego! youtu.be/jiquGs8He0M

Here's your friendly Earth Day reminder that Katie Wilson is the transit candidate in the Seattle Mayor’s race.

I’m in Phoenix for work and the Valley Metro buses have the most padded schedules I’ve ever seen. Like I’m talking about going 20 mph in a 45 zone and still being early at the timing points. Nothing wrong with adding schedule padding to a long route, but this is excessive

breaking news: sound transit does not tolerate harassment. please report any harassment to security or transit employees.

In this week's YouTube video, I try out a brand-new San Diego bus route, the 910 Overnight Express! Connecting Downtown to the Mexican border, it's a fun adventure, but didn't go exactly to plan... youtu.be/AOWrC-CHh2A

You saw our video from two weeks ago racing around the Bay Area, but Alex decided he needed to try it again... on a weekday! Up now on YouTube: youtu.be/l333Ki8hygA?...

In my latest video, y'all meet Alex, and we race around the San Francisco Bay to see who can make it back to the iconic Ferry Building first! youtu.be/QR9M-5IZQL4

I could make an in-depth video (like I did for Vancouver) for all of these major transit agency fiscal cliffs. However, they all basically have the same causes. Check out my latest YouTube video to find out more about the problem and how we can save our transit: youtu.be/x9u491vLGek
