San Francisco Puzzled by Bus Jumpers

Tuesday, 11 June 2013 | by Pat's Picks

San Francisco officials are equally baffled and worried about a new trend sweeping their city. It seems bus riders in San Fran have decided jumping from moving buses is their preferred exit method. Drivers say they’ve had at least 15 jumpers since the beginning of June—and virtually none before that. While some seem to be tired of waiting for expresses buses to make their limited stops, others seem to enjoy “riding the surf,” or hanging on to the outside of the bus while it’s cruising along.
