The cuts, along with the fare jumps is putting the entirety of the budget crisis on the back of the MUNI riders. Can we please get meter rates increased and hours extended?

But when I did, it was a completely different experience than riding other nearby buses. Every time a person got off the bus, the bus driver wished them a pleasant day, and more often than not the person would thank the driver as he or she stepped down to the pavement. I will miss the 53.
