Just how many points DO bus drivers get for hitting a pedestrian? Just what the Hell is going on here? Are these drivers LICENSED? If the Washington Metro area transportation system is the way to go, I'd rather sit in rush hour traffic in my car. ( Can't walk, the crosswalks are bulls-eyes! ) If the public's safety isn't a priority, ground the fleet. At least then, the pedestrian might have a fighting chance to make it across the intersection. Toughen safety regulations for these drivers and enforce a yearly refresher safety class, if necessary. There is NO reason why these accidents are happening, just carelessness on the driver's part.

10 years + driving in the DC area. Likes to listen to DC101 and reads whenever possible. Brutally honest and opinionated.
