Am sure this bit of news will drive even more people off riding buses.
GD things are slow enough all ready with people boarding with granny and other carts, now things will be held up while some woman manoeuvres an open stroller onto bus and tries to make it down aisle.
I can just see the bus battle between an oldster with a walker trying to get past a couple baby strollers. It will be pandemonium.
It is bad enough NOW without the strollers.

The real fun will be when two PoC welfare mommas get into an argument over their strollers. Two open strollers can block the aisle, and the kind of people that bring open strollers on a bus are usually belligerent PoC types. The old folks with walkers are an easy target for PoC welfare mommas. The city only wants healthy well-off old folks in the city anyway.
Wait a minute. They allow people with walkers onto the bus? I've never seen that. Course I hardly ever take the bus so...
Walkers, those carts that act also as walkers... All have been allowed on buses for decades now. Pretty much since all buses were switched over to those that kneel or have those platforms that extend out and down.
In old days (and maybe still) with the old buses anything with wheels had to use back door which was equipped with a lift. Newer buses are different.
