Culture of Safety @ TriMet

Wednesday, February 5, 2014:  TriMet vehicle 2285 with rear sign "GAR" pulls away from the bus stop at S.W. 4th and Hall in downtown Portland
I thought Neil McFarlane's "Safety Crackdown" eliminated such maneuvers...yet, here's a TriMet bus making a triple lane change at S.W. 4th Avenue at Hall Street in just 50 feet of roadway, in violation of ORS 811.375...

    Well, look at 6th and Hawthorne and that illegal lane change that is still there.

    That's really the only way drivers CAN take those turns sometimes. The pull from 4th and Hall to 4th and Mill is particularly brutal.
