That Mack @thatmc.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Waymo makes transit service worse in San Francisco. Their vehicles block bus zones, double park where the bus cannot get by, get stuck and generally suck. They are also getting noticeably worse as time goes on and the company pushes the boundaries of what it can get away with. 36117

That Mack @thatmc.bsky.social · 05/09/2026There is no more effective way to reduce car driving than reducing the amount of parking available. It is by far the best way to protect the environment, fight climate change, and improve mobility by any other mode. Every parking space that is removed from this earth is a policy victory. 18312
That Mack @thatmc.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Today I am operating coach 8637, which is wrapped in the Maroon and Yellow livery that Muni’s New Look GMC buses were introduced with in 1969.

That Mack @thatmc.bsky.social · 01/09/2026This is a bizarre and incorrect misapprehension that seemingly many people hold: that if they are in the car, or it is running, or if the hazards lights are on, or some combination thereof, then the illegal parking somehow does not count as a violation, and they shouldn’t be held accountable. 3222
That Mack @thatmc.bsky.social · 01/09/2026If Waymo is unwilling to program its vehicles to legally park, the company should be required to self report every violation it’s vehicles commit, then pay the applicable fine immediately. They can build the citation directly into their fare structure and find out if their customers willing to pay. 15912
That Mack @thatmc.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Too many cars, not enough people on the bus. The most effective way to fix this is abolishing free curbside parking. Free parking ruins mobility. 1352
