I was recently in Bloomington and saw the giant electric buses driving around. I wanted to point out that you could waste taxpayer money faster by just placing it directly into any toilet and depressing the flush lever.
At approximately 4:14pm today (2/18/26) I was riding my bicycle in the bike lane on North College across from Square Donuts. Bus #2506, Route #6 (women with black hair) was stopped on the bike lane at the BT bus stop. I went around her into the lane of traffic. As I was going around her, she started pulling out at the time I was just behind her left shoulder. Her window was open, so I alerted her that I was there. I thought she would slow down or stop but instead she accelerated as she looked at me. She could have cared less. I got the look from her that said my bus is bigger you stop. I did stop abruptly almost wrecking in traffic otherwise she would of ran over me or further pushed me into traffic. Please email me what your resolution was as I will follow up.
Bus 9 drove right passed the stop around 9:05 a.m. There was a group of people waiting at the curb and they just drove right by. Didn’t say it was a full bus or anything on the sign at the top. Some missed class and exams!
There Thea’s a bus sitting parked along the the west side of College 15th to 16th from approximately 720 to Atleast 730+ This cause a line of site for cars trying to out of 15th because the bus was just sitting. I did not get the bus number but people trying to get on to college could look north to see if the lane was clear to pull out.

Bus parking in front of eating area blowing exhaust fumes
Bus parks next to outside eating area and is left running. Would like yo see them park farther back by hobby lobby or further forward, but right next to the outside eating area is ridiculous. I don't enjoy having my lunch and having to yell just to talk to someone next to me.
City buses need to stop parking right in front of the kroger outdoor seating
At 3:54 pm today, an emergency vehicle was approaching this intersection from the south (with lights and sirens) and a white BT SUV turned from W Grimes Lane onto N Walnut Street. The emergency vehicle turned west onto W Grimes Lane, making their paths a close call. This is just a friendly reminder for them to stop and yield rather than turn right before the emergency vehicle reaches the intersection.
