The event will be detailed as offered to dispatch and responding officers in accordance with IC 35-45-1-3 and 35-45-2-1. I now know the specifics to the means of the initial report. It was also annoying of the patrons from the bus. The report to Monroe County dispatch happened around 1040p on 20150422. The incident occurred at 1027p on 20150422.
Bus 555, on route 3E, almost ran into me at approximately 5:15 p.m. on Saturday, September 1, 2018. I was at the stop sign, leaving the parking lot as referenced above on the map. The bus took the left turn at an angle and did not stop. I put my car in reverse and the bus just missed my car by inches. My entire family was in the car with me. I have not seen bus driving this bad in quite some time. They need to be careful and take it slow. If they cannot make the turn, then let the other person turn so they have a wider angle. I'm not sure why a bus would be in a parking lot anyways--it's a poor place to put a bus stop if there is one. There's too much congestion in that parking lot especially.
Bus driver going so fast on 3rd he couldn't / wouldn't stop at the stop we pulled chain for. Then, rather than stopping around the corner, he said he we drop us off at the next stop, blaming for nut giving him enough notice, which is incorrect because we get off and pull the chain for that stop at least once a day and other drivers stop just fine. This guy was just driving way too fast and was trying to make up time since we left downtown more than 5 minutes late So besides being dangerous, the guy is rude and definitely needs some customer service training.
Had a city bus pull out in front of me thursday evening. Half the time they don't stop at the stop sign on Hagan.
6 Bus 0554 Today (4/25/17) blew past the stop at 10th and college at approximately 1:40 PM. There were students and other passengers such as myself standing at the side of the road. The bus raced over the hill at 10th street and ran right past us.

The Bloomington Police Department investigates after a city transit but struck and killed a woman near the bus station at the corner of Third Street, and Walnut, Thursday, September 26, 2019 in Bloomington, Ind. Police are not yet releasing the name of the women pending notification of next of kin. BPD Police Lt. John Kovach said, "At this time preliminarily it appears that the city transit bus was pulling out of the station when the victim was struck. She is a deceased. It is a female. I do not have any other information, age, or name or anything that we're going to release at this time, obviously due to next of kin notification. So at this point, the investigation is ongoing with our accident reconstructionists. I do not know when any information will be released for the accident. Obviously, we want to make sure that we do a good thorough investigation." (Photo by Jeremy Hogan/The Bloomingtonian)
The 2 south route is being detoured and there is no information about it on the website or the app. How are people supposed to know that the bus will not arrive at their stop. The storm was three weeks ago, you should have information posted by now. Unacceptable.
