Well thank god them cellphones don't work down in the TTC tunnels, huh? (Letter to This Crazy Train.com)

Hey CJ

re: TTC to passengers: Don’t snap texting drivers

I just read this article in the Star about TTC drivers being caught in the act of texting while driving. WTF is going on!

Seriously, don't we have enough issues with TTC and hear more shit about it?

AND explain to me why NO ONE tells the bus driver to get off the flipping phone!

I know that when I get into a taxi cab, I always insist that he wait until he drops me off to answer his phone OR pull over, stop the meter and answer his bloody phone... IT'S NEVER AN EMERGENCY.

Remember people, these drivers have your lives in their hands.

The least they can do is wait to stop at any designated bus stop and do what they have to do OR more importantly, stay off the phone like the rest of the drivers in Ontario have to do!

Just sharing,
e

    I had 2 laugh at that as well. They prefer us to report the incidents and say they will be dealt with. Sure, when and how?

    Oh, I hate how the TTC is dealing with a lawbreaker through "internal procedures". They should just call the police.
