Here’s the official word from Metro:
For hours on end, bus drivers manage to keep a schedule, check fares, give directions, remember stop requests and more, all while safely maneuvering an extra-large vehicle through unpredictable traffic, bad weather and some really tight spaces! The fact is, bus drivers don’t have an easy job, they just make it look that way.
Bus Driver Appreciation Day is Tuesday, March 18. Join us in celebrating the contributions of our hard-working bus drivers, Access drivers and rail operators with something as simple as a smile when you board the bus and a “thank you” when you leave. And don’t forget you can submit an official commendation for a job well done, so your drivers can be formally recognized for their efforts. (You can do that any time of year!)
While you are riding, you also can tag your tweets #MetroSmiles with kudos or thanks for your driver. Whether tweeting or using our online comment form, be sure to note the four-digit coach number, route, time and direction so we can make sure your commendation reaches your driver.
We apologize for the late notice, but hey – there is still time to thank your driver on your commute home!
