Yet another harmless transit-driver freak
In the mold of the notorious New Yorker, Darius McCollum, whose fixation with all-things-transit leads him to impersonate drivers and commandeer trains [NOTW 900, 5-8-2005; NOTW 666, 11-10-2000; NOTW 526, 3-6-1998], we have Miamian James Harris, whose specialty is buses. In his latest escapade, he grabbed a bus and ran out the South Beach route, picking up passengers, collecting the fare, delivering everyone safely, returning the bus. No complaints, no missing money.

You didn't mention the other interesting part of the story: "It was unclear whether he picked up any fares during the second trip, but one passenger made it a real joyride: With the bus pulled to the side of the road, security cameras show Harris making out with an unidentified man."

Miamian = a person from or currently living in Miami.

Just in case there are non-XANthians reading your stuff, Chuck.

Why don't these people get real transit jobs? Judging by some of the driving I've seen, it must be really easy to get one.
