Yes, a bus hit the hydrant

Rich:  I am waiting your apology!

See this story and the clueless comment Rich made:  https://blnnews.com/2017/09/23/did-anybody-see/

I don’t print stories without a reliable source!

The bus was one of the newer ones – a 2016.  I received this information under the Freedom of Information Act.  I was told a repair estimate isn’t available yet.  I don’t blame the bus driver, when cars are waiting for the light to change like the ones pictured in green below, that intersection is not wide enough for a right turn.

  1. Also occasionally I am in traffic with Connect Transit bus drivers that cannot stay within the lines on the pavement. Perhaps they’ll knock off a few bicyclists once the Bike BlowNow craze finally hits it’s stride.

    1. Or sideswipe a few oncoming cars as they swerve to avoid cyclists. . The skinny lanes are barely wide enough for cars

  2. Wow. I made it into a story?!? So it knocked over the hydrant, eh? Did you FOIA before or after you published your first story?

    1. A bus had an accident. Stop the presses. This has NEVER happened in the history of the entire world!!!!! Diane wants an apology. What else is new? Talk about a nothingburger of a story. Way to go Diane!
