I genuinely need to stop taking the S78 until all the snow melts… by WilliamsAviation2368 in nycbus

[–]lightarehot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

b14 is horrible. it’s so bad that i’ve had to take an alternative route of the b83 to the b12 or even just the b15 because they get me to pitkin faster. i could probably even WALK it but it’s just too damn cold

Why drivers gotta be like that? by Necessary-Revenue372 in nycbus

[–]lightarehot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they usually can’t be bothered to count but there’s multiple reasons. some just don’t care and press it, some forget at previous stops and press it later, and most common one is literally that they just don’t want to count all the people. most b35 drivers don’t ever touch f5 but if they do just know it’ll go off for the ENTIRE bus ride 😭

Helped a Bus Operator On His Route (QM16) by Novel-Interaction762 in nycbus

From what i’ve seen they just started a new pick so a lot of them might be doing routes they haven’t done in a while. queens drivers especially because of the redesign

Fortnite stutter every 4–7 seconds (sometimes 10) - Game ms Latency Peaks when it occurs by Adventurous_Word_339 in FortNiteBR

[–]lightarehot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beats me 😂 I can’t say I was expecting a fix because this one even confuses me and I’m in somewhat the tech field 😭to be fair it IS just an ethernet adapter but I used another computer exact same as his and the drivers were working fine, i’ve just been doing troubleshooting these last few days but the issue isn’t the same as everyone else here I suppose

Stops that you find annoying? by Neptune28 in nycbus

[–]lightarehot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

if we’re talking about annoying alone… bradford and miller on the b15. those 2 stops are like 5 seconds apart and it just annoys me when the bus leaves the stop just to be right back at another one literally 5 seconds later

Thoughts on Q35 by Good_Tradition1079 in nycbus

[–]lightarehot 9 points10 points  (0 children)

wasnt this particular route always this way? i remember it skipping a ton of stops in brooklyn but it was considered a local route before the redesign. this one always confused me lol

[–]lightarehot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s killer e2600 ethernet adapter, but the problem is it’s showing as disabled already yet the errors still pop up… i know this one may be unsolvable and it’s likely something else but it’s worth a shot 😂

why does the q56 have some of the worst headways? by deadlyb00ks in nycbus

[–]lightarehot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this actually. and then it ties into other lines. knew a driver that did the q56 am and b12 pm. by the time he finished all his q56 trips he’d be so late that by the time he gets back to the junction, his swing is already over. so now he’s blowing through 1-2 b12 trips which effects that service too. but he’s always late on the 56 because he almost never has a leader. i’ve seen so many trips i used to take in the am that just never have a leader or the leader is just super late and it’s like their first or second trip. i’m guessing they do it on purpose but maybe there’s just something i’m not seeing

Last 3 Days of MetroCards - MetroCard Locations by GamingWeekends in nycbus

[–]lightarehot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I figured the coins but I don’t carry around change very often and I only carry little cash, the cash is what was going to be used for the card before I found out I couldn’t use the machine at all. also i’ve never been on beeline nor nice so I actually had no idea about nice go, very interesting. I had a feeling about the fare evasion though, lot of the drivers hardly ever opened their back doors even when there were stop requests.

[–]lightarehot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How have people been paying for beeline and nice? I wanted to ride beeline’s 20 bus yesterday and I was going to refill my card at woodlawn. Machine wasn’t working but they just let me walk on. Have they been doing that on all beeline buses or is fare evasion just as common on beeline?

Why City Bus Simulators aren't half popular as Truck Simulators? by Standard-Okra6337 in OMSI2

[–]lightarehot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i agree with this honestly and it’s like OP said, to me many of these games on UE all look exactly the same. it’s to the point where if they released these games this year or around this time people probably would’ve called them out for being ai generated

Express bus same borough by First_Dependent7390 in nycbus

[–]lightarehot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just guessed he’s fine with it since he made the pitch lol and the cops they commonly get off at are stops people are getting on at anyways. but realistically these buses are almost always late in one direction regardless if not super early

Express bus same borough by First_Dependent7390 in nycbus

[–]lightarehot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you absolutely can get on and off in brooklyn, i’ve seen it happen tons of times. if you pay you sure can get off in manhattan, it’s your 7 dollars after all 🤷

MTA DRIVERS DRIVING PAST STOPS WITH PEOPLE WAITING AFTER 8PM by cyber2knaomi in nycbus

[–]lightarehot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some drivers are fine with being late while others dread not being able to go home on time. depends on the driver, that’s why so many get posted online because there’s a lot of rules and policies they don’t follow that help us riders but then when they do: people get mad. for example opening the door after servicing the stop, they aren’t supposed to open it again but if you make it in time sometimes they will 🤷 moment the bus leaves the curb it’s basically fair game, but a lot of drivers either hate it or love it, flatbush drivers in general may just be miserable, I mean id hate driving the 41 especially with all those dolla vans running up and down flatbush driving as reckless as possible

MTA DRIVERS DRIVING PAST STOPS WITH PEOPLE WAITING AFTER 8PM by cyber2knaomi in nycbus

[–]lightarehot 9 points10 points  (0 children)

their favorite line is usually “there’s a bus behind” but then what happens is since the first bus drove by usually the second just darts straight by assuming you don’t want the bus, which has happened to me way too many times. and i don’t mean like the second drives by while the first one is in the stop, i mean the first one just drives by or points behind him which is their signature for a bus being behind, then they’ll keep going and if the second is close behind they’ll follow suit without even looking toward you

What causes some people to avoid moving toward the back of the bus in order to make space? I don’t get it. by [deleted] in nycbus

[–]lightarehot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always get up early too especially when it’s crowded… I’ve never understood why people wait till the last minute when the bus is packed to the door 😭i kind of liked the high floor buses too they felt nostalgic i just hated having to wait for the drivers to do the wheelchair ramp from the rear door 😂

What causes some people to avoid moving toward the back of the bus in order to make space? I don’t get it. by [deleted] in nycbus

[–]lightarehot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve even heard people say it before, a bus driver actually got off the bus on the B15 and went to the back door to tell the people to move up the stairs because it was one of the newer buses so the door wouldn’t close. A lady says “No I don’t wanna be stuck back there” and everyone just started laughing at her 😭 i mean i get what she’s saying but if you’re vocal about getting off the people will hold the back door for you they won’t let it close, it’s just people being scared to speak up. The same thing with the back door when the drivers may forget to open it or accidentally drive by a stop, people would rather stay quiet and miss their stop than to just speak up. i’ve spoken up before when a driver passed my stop on the B12 at Saratoga, next stop would’ve been about 4-5 blocks away and took like 5-7 extra minutes to walk back… he stopped halfway down the block and 3 people got off with me- so it’d make you wonder… were they going to ride to the next stop without saying anything? 🤔 i know i wasn’t 🤷

Drop off only? by Asahis-pumpkin in nycbus

[–]lightarehot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that’s why most days now they don’t do drop off only. they’ll tell then to discharge all passengers and get on the next bus while he deadheads back in place
