Rants:

StephanieLantry @metrolosangeles I’m not sure, but I don’t think it’s supposed to be a 45 minute wait for the 705.

MichaelAffeldt @metrolosangeles :: At Wilshire/Vermont, the screen says 7:08, but the 7:09 train has already come and gone. Not cool. What’s the deal?

bighandsome Its 6pm on a weekyday, @metrolosangeles – why am I waiting over 20 mins for a bus on line 14?

Kythera Not a good transit day. >.> #metrolosangeles

GaryRidesBikes SM Blvd and vermont 704 west stop overflowing trash as usual. #metrolosangeles

rebelrina Bus ten minutes late this morning. Fail, @metrolosangeles.

CarlessValGirlI wonder if #metrolosangeles bus drivers realize that arriving late and driving slowly causes patrons to miss connecting buses.

CarlessValGirl A 40min+ wait on a Saturday for an E/W bus on a busy corner. Multiple buses in either direction have passed. Still waiting. #metrolosangeles

Compliments:

rebelrina The bus was only two minutes late today, which still counts as on time. Thank you, @metrolosangeles. Every day, please.

Observations in transit:

nbrunskill I knew I should have taken @metrolosangeles today. There was a hot guy on my bus! Damn. Live and learn.

PeltFrelken @ExpoLine Disappointed that Expo Line bike lane is not fully Class I (maybe no space? i’m not sure) #metrolosangeles

plusMETRO Since ’92, avg. daily ridership on #metrolosangeles rail has increased 1116% in just 8 yrs. Talk about progress

GaryRidesBikes Riding #metrolosangeles 704 to life beforelicense meeting. Seems like more bikes on SM Blvd since repaving in SM.

RobertMoranLA @kristi_gail trust me you meet a lot of interesting a diverse people on the bus. #Metrolosangeles riders are like a microcosm of the city.

Good ideas:

helkimchee would be nice if at least metro, lapd & city vehicles gave me 3 ft passing room while biking. @villaraigosa @metrolosangeles @MobilityMaven

plusMETRO also #metrolosangeles should have Tokyo-esqe leaving sounds where it rings just before the red/purple line leave.

plusMETRO it would help people gauge from a a distance whether they will make it on the train. Keeping the subway on time #metrolosangeles
