Latest SEEN and HEARD on #TRIMET (aka #Trimess)

TrimetScanner Tweets are HERE!
I despise you, your new fare system and your shoddy ticket machines that you insist we use.
I take this bus to and from work. This bus driver is well known to be one of the nicest human beings working for Trimet. Awful. 

Broken glass PSU Urban Ctr 5th/Mill stop  

I love a MAX train with a flat spot. Vehicle 414. Thud thud thud thud thud thud thud. However this will get fixed, unlike buses 

Hey . Please watch camera on bus 2209 at 11:20 or so. Driver Texting and driving? Nearly blew a stop sign. 

Red line announcing incorrect stops along Banfield segment (Wash. Park announced @ Hollywood TC, Goose Hollow @ 60th, etc.) 

I despise you, your new fare system and your shoddy ticket machines that you insist we use. 

MAX Red Line disrupted in Beaverton: TriMet says MAX service in Beaverton is disrupted due to ...  

Trimet is fuckin up this morning... 10 minuets late. 

feels so good to drive to school ugh nomore trimet

Let me set scene I am back of the bus chillin no pain asian dude boards bus walks to back sits down takes out cell pain right side 

Dear : I left my grey swing cardigan on the 70 Bus yesterday. doesn't have it. Anyone seen it? Please for the love of god? 

TRIMET UPDATE: Due to Signal Error in Beaverton Use Blue Line in Beaverton & Transfer to Red Line Trains Downtown  

why the heck is the 35 never on time??  

ummm are buses suppose to stop and let people off not at a stop? Just did in St Johns...bus stopped a block away blocking a road 

WTF is the point of TrImet's schedules? A 12 and a blue line have disappeared on me tonight. Wreck service raise fares.  

Swear TriMet cops think they are LAPD or somethin 

, i don't pay $100 a month to get treated like shit by your bus drivers. thanks for nothing. 

Trimet been on that bullshit all day!! 

removed WES from newest MAX maps...would be nice to include connecting bus lines (like on bus maps)  

This MAX is stopping and starting like a cliché teen learning to drive  

- Is there a reason Trimet doesn't use double-deck buses on high ridership lines? 

Joys of riding : riders who belch right behind me and don't even apologize. 

Thank your bus driver.  

But at least kept the budget to run stupid human interest stories on social media, right?  

Thank you, , for making sure that buses are consistently late even after an exorbitant fare hike.  

max driver just said over speaker, "this is NOT a taxi. this is a train." I wish I knew the context.  

Somebody write a poem about how bad the MAX smells during rush hour.  

70° is not cold enough for heat to be on,

Fun fact: With not phasing out the old buses until 2017, they can live up to 27 years total, or as long as Janis Joplin was alive. 

BIcylist injured himself going across street car tracks  

Gosh dang! Pdx's is becoming more dangerous! How do you survive the stabbings, gunshots and assaults

Taking the Trimet bus to work for the first time, never doing this again  

Fire crews respond to TriMet bus fire in Aloha 

veh 2022 stopped left lane, driver exited vehicle 5th @ Broadway - 2nd bus in rt lane unable to proceed as driver in the lane 

veh 2145 on rt 44 made another illegal dbl lane change 4th @ Hall. Guess that safety blitz is over.

Referring me to customer service is laughable. 

Once again, fails. Bus that arrived was drop-off only. Next bus is in 30 minutes. Will probably be late to class 

Found the car number - it's 309B that is announcing the stops in reverse. 

And it would appear that the train thinks it's heading eastbound - announcing now that the next stop is Kings Hill. 

rider on 77 with a bike just brought a rubbermaid container full of bottles. This bus stinks! 

Fuuuuck  

the bus driver today looks like waka flocka.  

Seriously? 3 buses have gone in the other direction, and I'm still waiting here. This is why I don't take Trimet seriously. 

the 75 bus just rushed passed 39th and Belmont without stopping. Hardly worth hiking up the fare prices, don't you think? 

That feel when your driver stops the bus to use an ATM. At least he is a credit union member, amirite? 

If you run a preschool or daycare and your main mode of transportation is : go fuck yourself. Seriously. 

Trimet security just escorted a drunk passed out dude off the bus, they were really nice to him though. 

Somehow the "downtown only" 35 buses make it through, just not the ones headed to Oregon City. Several of us shivering in the wind, 

I forgot how bad Trimet buses smell.... 

#35 bus five minutes away on Transit Tracker, then disappears. Extra half-hour wait. Always seems to happen on the coldest days. 

My patience for lackluster performance for all involved at TriMet is at an end! Like the rest of us, FIGURE IT OUT! 

Your customers expect resolutions which do not include drivers blaming the admins and admins bitching about the driver's union. 

I spend $1200/year therefore I have no patience for drivers & admins throwing each other "under the bus." West metro needs relief! 

"Trimet: We're there for you. Or not. For just $100 a month." 

I swear there must be a dearth of competent Trimet drivers nowadays. This is getting ridiculous.  

Taking the bus to jury duty today. I feel old sitting here remembering Trimet used to cost $0.85. 

what's the procedure when a bus can't take on any more riders? Another bus or you're screwed? 

I hate . Thanks for making me late for work #4 by never showing up. 

Hard stop on rt 94 tr 9608 caused nearly a half dozen riders on crush load bus to fall 

I just ousted as the mayor of TriMet Bus Line 77 on !  

the kid on the bus is extremely loud. How can the driver focus? 77 line bus 2543 

WTF is the point of TrImet's schedules? A 12 and a blue line have disappeared on me tonight. Wreck service raise fares.
