I'm currently on bus 0345 with a female driver going eastbound towards Fountain Park. She was just incredibly, incredibly rude to a fellow bus rider. She threw her hands in the air when the new rider did not immediately have their ID in hand, mentioning "this isnt a taxi service" and just overall being very disrespectful. Her attitude was very unprofessional and I could tell the other rider was very uncomfortable.

Please get the 7 drivers on schedule; once again they are willing within a few blocks of each other, following each other around and messing up the schedule.

The bus stop sign at the corner of S. Sare Road and E. Buttonwood Lane has been hit by a car and is leaning over. I've pulled it up as much as I can, but it should probably just be replaced or at least fixed straight.
Thanks so much for your help!

I just contacted Bloomington Transit, but wanted to report to the city Transportation department as well. I driver I saw a few weeks ago littering his cigarette butt at the downtown BT station, was seen eating while driving today. Below is the email I sent to BT. I hope this driver is properly trained and/or reprimanded. This is unacceptable from anyone, but especially someone representing the city.
"Hello,
Do you allow your drivers to eat food while they drive? I assume not; this is a major safety risk that a bus driver should not be doing.
However, the driver of 4W, today, October 14, leaving downtown at 6:10p was eating chips WHILE he was driving. Not just while stopped at lights, but as the bus was in motion, having at least only one hand on the wheel while transporting 10-15 people during rush hour.
I believe this is the same driver I emailed about a few weeks ago who I saw littering his cigarette butts outside on the sidewalk adjacent to Walnut St. What an inconsiderate, selfish, unsafe driver. I hope a wreck doesn't happen because he's endangering people and can't wait to eat until he's at the station."

I live at 1101 N College Ave, and I also work from home. Each day for hours at a time, city buses park on College Ave just in front of my building (15th and College, just in front of White Orchid Flowers and across the street from Big Red Liquor) for hours at a time. The out-of-service bus currently parked outside the building (0345), engine running the whole time, has been parked there for nearly two hours. I recognize and value the availability of public transportation. But the buses are loud. With double paned windows, the sound of the bus engine permeates my whole apartment, over and over every day. Please please find another place for the buses to idle, whether out of service or waiting for a route. It affects both my home and work life.
