Random Gift Drawing on Muni
Mission Mission’s Ariel Dovas received a random gift from a stranger on Muni. From Ariel:
This morning on the way to work I noticed this dude across the train looking up and back down at a notebook and figured he was drawing the train or something. A few minutes later he came up to me and handed me a piece of paper. “I drew a picture of you. Here.”

Starting Monday, BART is lifting its rush hour ban on bikes for a trial period of five months before deciding whether the change will be permanent. You might remember that BART’s board of directors voted in May to lift the rush hour bike ban.
Allowing bikes on trains during rush hour will apply to all stations at all hours. According to current BART rules for morning commutes, bikes are allowed in the Embarcadero Station only for trips to the East Bay.

Then, the bus driver informed us that there had been an “incident” and the police were on their way. He said we were welcome to get on the bus, although “it might be a while.” I decided to wait for the next bus or the police to come. After a few minutes, a woman on the bus – who I later found out was the one causing ‘the incident’ on the bus – started yelling at other passengers on the bus, some of whom responded. Read more
