Austin's Capital Metro busses are Icky!

I ride the buses for many reasons but when I do I have to do laundry almost three times that week because I don't want my germy clothes hanging out too long in the bin. Capital Metro buses are sooooooooooo filthy. They just don't stink, the seats are stained with who knows what and if you have taken a ride in the dark, gross! You know not to sit near the crustysmudgedyuk windows. Those things are open petri dishes. They are never cleaned. I've taken rides to work as early as 6am and those windows are smudged with hand prints, sneeze residue, coughed up spit and ICK! I'd like to stop here, but the crap on the windows goes on..... I'm talking about the buses only. I've been one of four working people on them, all freshly scrubbed and clean for work and the thing smells like BO,vomit, hot rancid beer and ass with a faint hint of perfume and mouthwash. I appreciate the latter two scents actually.

Why can't they hose the whole thing down? Take one of those hot water power hoses used to clean concrete and just hose the whole thing down once a week. Why can't they scrub those things down once a month? YUK! So now there's going to be a train. Man, I hope they plan to hose the thing down once in awhile . It's going to be a pretty crummy train to ride if it's as filthy as the #5, #1, #101, #1L and #3 Maybe riding the buses improves the immune system over time? It's not for sissy immune systems, that's for sure, and it isn't for weak stomachs or people who have to use Laundromats.

I really think more people would ride and get more vehicles off the street if only they were a bit more user friendly. At least have the morning buses a wee bit cleaner. Hose those things down! Lysol! Windex!
