CURIOUS ISN'T IT?

A handful of people listen to the dispatch calls, I'm one of them obviously.
What I find curious is that with all the overheated broken down buses that occur when it gets about 85, why are the bus on time statistics NOT horrible, I mean dastardly?

Trimet statistics present bus service as being on time 80% of the time?

I can't possibly believe it, there are far too many missed and late trips to make that figure even remotely believable.

As MAX RED LINE WOULD SAY:

You know, I could be wrong about this, but i think late trips, and completed trips are separate measurements. So if the bus never finishes the trip, then it goes in the trips completed (or not completed) statistic. I mean its late arrival is sorta botched if its a no arrival at all.....but again this is me thinking out loud.
