    The M14 is AKA The Pokémon Go Bus because it goes so slow, it a perfect bus to play Pokémon Go.

    Oh that's absolutely shitty. Especially once the weather gets bad. Busses have a great advantage compared to all those people who would drive a car to work, alone. Here in the Netherlands we have buslanes and busses also influence the stoplights (so when a bus arrives, they are often first to cross the crossroads) It's a really nice way to travel fast and cheap within a city. But yeah, even in a country this small, the convenience and experience gets worse and worse the larger the city

      NYC is over ten times larger than your largest city. I agree that the Netherlands is leading in alternative transportation, but I feel part of the reason is because it's such a small place.

      Yea in most of Europe bus travel is much better. At rush hour, my bus in the UK does an average of 12mph. Manhattan is a completely different story, buses are useless

      Brenden Resnick The M14A and D SBS do not eliminate the legs in the Lower East Side. Rather, the legs will remain. The M14 is the unofficial designation for the combined M14A/D service, and the combined service is referred to as the M14 in the schedules.

    • @TheRailLeaguer
      @TheRailLeaguer 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Brenden Resnick There are short run M14 buses that solely operate along 14th Street and do not carry the A and D designations.
