It sounds like today you met the bus driver doing their job. :shrug:
I just asked my older son (Thing1, as I refer to him on the forums) about this. We live in Calvert Co. He has a bus pass, which he gets issued to him from transportation (he has to provide an ID and fill out an application for it) because he has a disability. He rides the bus every day to and from work. He says he never gets asked by "the computer/robot lady's voice" to show ID. He says it never asks him, or his other co-workers who have a disability pass. He is not sure what the criteria is for it asking, but it seems to be random - not all cards.
At least over here in Calvert.
good point! I have only ridden the county bus a couple of times, when my daughter was younger, so that's been maybe 6 years. I didn't have to show ID.

Yes. You need an ID to show you are an American. And, illegals will be given ID's and socials. Makes no sense. This article is interesting and it was reported on FOX a few days ago.

I would have posted part of the article, but weird my computer froze up. I find that happening more and more each day when I want to access info, and my computer freezes. Scary times.

Its the Govt way of protecting you from news that might upset you or cause distress. The Govt knows what is good for you.....

You can purchase a monthly pass or get one free if you're on disability. Too many people let someone borrow their pass to avoid paying the fare. In the end, STS gets ripped off.
Scary times indeed. A FOX news article with a CBS news address. Be very afraid...

Huh? I said I was posting an article (yes cbs) and I also said this story was reported on FOX, too. :shrug: It doesn't take much around here!

So, was it your buss pass you were trying to use?
Sounds like you have an anger problem.
Do you have a disable?
Logical
That's the way I read it. But just because it makes sense, don't expect the general public to miss an opportunity to blow it all out of proportion!
