How To Ride A Bus

ISEPTAPhilly How to Ride a Bus

[@11Rogue-Disciple11]

Here's "how to ride a septa bus" in my area: Step 1) get to bus stop early to be safe so you don't miss the bus Step 2) wait for quite a while until you begin to realize "it's late".. Step 3) Look up Septa real time to track where bus is: just to find out YOUR BUS ISN'T EVEN RUNNING Step 4) Call work for the 30th time explaining why you'll be late once again, and plead with boss to let you keep your job bcz your boss is becoming extremely aggravated with the ongoing situation Step 5) Get the next bus/next time slot bus. Tell boss you're next anticipated arrival time. Wait for it, and find it to be always late (due to now having abt twice as many passengers to stop for- from all the previous ppl who are in the same situation as you) Step 6) Explain to boss/plead to keep your job once more, apologizing for being doubly late now Step 7) (Which I no longer do, due to it being useless and changes nothing) call and complain to Septa Step 8) wonder how on earth a government run state service is constantly understaffed. Especially since it's once where a large percentage of the workforce which fuels our economy is dependent on

I hate the septa key idea I miss tokens

[@hardyz703]

Same! It made things so much easier

[@blackr0se]

It even slows down the men and women who check the passes. Previously it was a quick glance to see if you had the pass. Now... its "pull out the big device. Wait for service. swipe one card. wait to have it clear. then go on to the next card holder". its honestly a waste as they even STILL have people guarding the gates for entry.

Speaking as a New Yorker, I used to love tokens. They were like our own New York City currency. When I worked as a supermarket cashier, we used to accept them for payment; and, if a customer saw them in a cashier's drawer and requested them, we'd give them out as change.

I know right. We need them back.

I feel like the key card works nicely on the buses and the el, but man it's an awful system on the trains. Convoluted and make no sense.

Avoid getting stabbed or beaten in Philadelphia after or during your ride***+

How to ride the septa bus 1 first you gotta back up you would never know the bus would hit the walkway 2 get on the bus before it moves because it's super bumpy

[@FerdinandCesarano]

0:39 - It says that you can also pay on the bus using exact change of $2.50. Does this mean that it is required to be in all coins? Or are dollar bills accepted?

[@Machodave2020]

Dollars are excepted.

[@FerdinandCesarano]

@@Machodave2020 - Thanks. That is good to know.

[@FrankG5874]

I pay $1.25 as I have the SEPTA KEY RFC as I have a disability. Seniors ride for free on SEPTA.

Good video!

What if you’re in the suburbs I have to use the front door to exit

[@coolestdudeever1388]

also your buses never stop

[@billm1866]

Grab the overhead grip or sit down immediately because the bus driver will hit the gas the second you get on.

[@lolitared2150]

Do a video on how to get on/off septa buses using a motorized scooter. Today will be my client's first time using his scooter on the bus and we are both clueless. Does he drive on going forward or drive on in reverse???😔

[@pathguy]

Hey I think NJ Transit and you are in a competion so you guys can tell who will win

[@ROTE]

That bus is a New flyer.

[@superagent1161]

Are you sure it isn’t a Septa bus?

[@jpshk3]

@@superagent1161 new Flyer is a company that manufactures buses, not an actual bus system. So yes they are new Flyer and septa.
