Apparently the diesel - electric buses enter into a "regeneration" cycle under idle to somehow clean out the soot particulates in the diesel exhaust system. Hot exhaust burns out the soot, right? It stinks all to high hel** and fills the cabin with what smells like CO - filled exhaust. I fear being asphixiated while waiting for the warm bus to begin it's route. I open a couple of windows everytime I board.
Is this an exhaust leak, or is pumping hot regenerative soot exhaust gases including CO into the cabin, er.. normal? This smells awful and scares me everytime I ride a bus in these conditions.
Please provide proof this is not a danger or remedy this nasty smelling problem.

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.

This morning at roughly 9:30 am, a public transit B Link bus, number 2469, was headed south on S Highland Avenue and did not stop at the stop sign before proceeding to turn right onto E Winslow Road. The bus whipped out in front of me as I was headed west on East Winslow Road. There was very dense fog this morning, making this failure to stop especially concerning. Please make sure that bus drivers are following traffic laws, particularly when there is adverse weather. Thank you!

bus stop across from Maxs pizza on North College just south of the 17th street intersection

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.
