- Transit workers are on the front lines as they move around New York City.
They never know what they will have to deal with during their shift, and assaults are a real concern.
They should be bullet-proof as well.
😑 then the whole buss should be
So pathetic it has come to this a person can't even go out and make a decent living without savages trying to kill us
Well, they get assaulted because they are nasty. MTA employees are incredibly RUDE!!! I know this because ive I've lived here forever. Im not saying it's right, but I just don't have sympathy for them.
@@jmfia2391yes, so rude just because tell the customers to pay before boarding or to move back of tbe bus. You sound challeneged.
@@sonaNsoni You sound ignorant. Is that the only interaction you think people have with them? So goofy.
It’s been a thing for the longest here in NYC. I remember almost 30 years ago when a passenger had a tussle with a bus operator for not moving the bus. The bus operator was early and was keeping to schedule. The passenger stabbed the bus operator. The bus operator fought the passenger and stabbed the passenger back. The passenger died from the stab wound. The second one was over getting a transfer after the passenger requested a free ride. The bus operator declined as per policy and the passenger stabbed and killed the bus operator. So these partitions are long overdue
@@jmfia2391Pay your fare piece of trash 😂
Our society is falling fast. This is crazy. Who would have thought a bus drivers life is in danger from a passenger. Our newest heroes.👍
This has been for decades. So society has been falling since forever. Bus operators have also been stabbed while in service. So this partition is a welcome improvement.
What about those who sit on the bus we need seat belts they make new fancy busses but no seat belts

Don’t ride the bus….problem solved!
I been looking at assault on bus driver videos for a long time and never thought of this 👍. Bus drivers don’t need to worry about watching over their shoulder for some random wacko to do as they please.
The first time I saw the current partition was depressing enough. Depressing that things have gotten so bad that drivers need that to do their jobs. Now they have even more of a partition. Next they’ll arm it with lasers to clap back at unruly passengers.
That's not a bad idea 💡 about the laser !
🤣🤣😅
This isn’t new technology. Police cars have had these for a long time cuz of violent arrestees. Now buses? Yeah, next time I bet you buses are gonna have K-9 units for unruly passengers.
Man, if only!!! Lasers would definitely help!
How sad is NYC.
It's sad but worse than you think.
My city has died.
Very bad sad & scary 😮
How sad is the world don’t blame nyc blame it on Biden
This happens in various major cities, not just New York. I have lived in 5 cities not including New York and attacks on drivers routinely occur. It's about the world we live in and the nuts who believe that they're above reproach..
Dude should have had a lot of time off for those assaults.
We definitely need that
MTA tests new protective partitions for bus operators - because Mayor Adams said that NYC was safe as never before
He said ..." The people who don't want to pay " ........ You have to pay for a ride on the bus ...??????.........😮
You can't be Serious?????.... Do you get a Free haircut?...Free cell service?...Free light and gas?.. or better yet, Free Rent or Mortgage?????.... All Services will cost you money in this world since you were just born recently, with all of your Question Marks 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This was way overdue. Should have been done years ago.
I have seen some of the comments and you really do not know what happens to MTA workers in the NY subway systems and buses. It took so long for them to get the minimum protection now its more and I am happy for them. Some people have been stabbed, shot, spit on, have hot drinks thrown on them because patrons can reach around the partition. My prayers is no one has a heart attack or pass out and if this happens there is a way to get in to stop the bus. The bus operators are safer now. Thats what matters and if people are caught assaulting a MTA worker its suppose to be 7yrs in prison. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Hearing this, I see why people should pay to ride. It’s a penalty. I have now seen the light. But what happens when someone spray paints all over it or something? It’s going to destruct his view on his right side.
This should have happened years ago.. the trains should also be protected like Dubai..doors on the platforms linked to the train doors..they close when there's no train
.once the train arrives they open and close at the same time with the train doors. This prevents people from falling onto the tracks.
They've had them in taxicabs for decades, so I agree with you. This leads to another problem I have with the downsizing of taxicabs. Between the drivers, the partitions and the passengers, they don't provide enough room.
Charging violent attackers with a FELONY charge is not doing a thing when police are not arresting attackers,when these crimes are not reported and when the police and news media do not give descriptions of attackers with race,hieght,clothing,time of day and location where the incident occured. This mta driver is funny looking for more protections when the law protects you more than any other citizen already because tour a government worker.
Robots is coming Dorian !!😂
That's great so then when you the sun glare hits that and you can't see and you hit something they'll be the first to blame you
Freeloading passengers as well
Drivers should be allowed to defend themselves.
You can, however, you have to deal with the consequences.
That bus driver had all that happened to him he must be a real pain in the neck bothering all the people over the fair and all sorts of nonsense this is why most of them get assaulted just drive the bus
the laws in this country not properly
They act like they don't do anything to the people, the scream at the people they drive fast not to stop
Is it a secure enough cockpit? Is it closed at the top as well? I pray they move quickly and outfit all of the buses. I pray its totally secured.FATHER IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS MAY THESE NEW PARTITIONS PROTECT YOUR BUS DRIVERS AND KEEP THEM SAFE FROM HURT, HARM AND ANY DANGER IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME. HALLELUYAH AND AMEN!!!!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Hope you're not claustrophobic😂😂😂
I bet u some thing big is coming
This bus operator was probably enforcing all the rules and regulations and bothering the passengers just let everybody go drive your bus nobody will bother you he looks like a real pain in the ass
Assaulting a bus driver who could injure people on the bus and others on the road and or streets. Protect them.
As a New Yorker. I can tell you, A lot of NYC bus drivers are extremely nasty to the public. This isn't a one sided situation.
I'll side with the bus drivers because the public is extremely nasty to the public. The bus drivers are on a schedule that's stressful to maintain because so many things on the road are out of their control. Then passengers tend to make things about themselves instead of the other passengers on the bus. It's weird and I'll never understand the voluntary negative culture but New Yorkers are the worst citizens in the country. I know from experience, it's just bad. I'm not apologizing for how I feel. Too many New Yorkers are getting hurt or worse by other New Yorkers and only protesting when it's white or law enforcement. So I'm siding with the bus driver. Soon each passenger seat will need protective bullet proof boxes.
Drivers are nasty?
That's because they have to deal with nasty NYers.
As a Bus Driver that’s absolutely right! You nasty to us….We nasty to you!
That’s it, you’re right partner
@@karimrasheedwilson2160 , Part of your job is to provide friendly customer service and information to the public. We don't need drivers coming to work with a stink, rude, disrespectful attitudes and expect everyone to deal with it. GTFOH. Control yourself 🤦
Yeah because MTA operators have fucked up attitudes towards patrons. They need to invest in some attitude courses for them.
The cockpit 💀
MTA is 👍
This isn’t new. Phoenix AZ (Valley Metro), our buses have a plexiglass on a metal door partition installed since COVID started. It’s very sturdy at the same time it acts as a shield against violent attackers who want to fight the bus driver for not wanting to pay the fare. This is nothing new.
The Older Model Partitions were a Total Waste Of Money ....Useless - Period. The Usual Suspects - Clowns Designing Clown Suits!
These partitions are 15 years too late. Stop sending our money to foreign countries and let's spend it on protecting ourselves. Let other countries learn from how we build instead of sending our money to failed systems supported by American tax payer dollars.
Well those foreigners are HERE and were spending BILLIONS on them. Thanks to Democrats.
SHOULD OF HAPPENED YEARS AGO!
Autonomous bus drivers.
It'll be a thing in 10-15 years, and assaults will go through the roof between patrons
You should be protecting people on the bus with seat belts .Only the driver has one that's not fair for people on the bus ...
Only in america….
There goes our taxes money.
He sound scared 😂😂😂
He should be, people are reckless and intolerant
He should be.
Probably a child typed this comment!
