    Greyhound closed a lot of their terminals about 15-20 years ago as well as eliminating hundreds of small towns as stopping points. Not to mention they changed a lot of their routes and now require going miles out of the way to get to your destination. An example is one used to be able to go from Little Rock to Flagstaff, AZ directly and then on to Los Angeles. Not anymore. You have to detour down to Dallas from Fort Smith, Arkansas, then to Phoenix and on to Los Angeles. Very inefficient.

    Get used to this all over the country. Greyhound was bought by Flix a couple of years ago. If you have every used Flixbus, you know that they don't have stations. They only have bus stops along sides of streets or in small transit stops.

    How is this legal?

    • @holyworrier
      @holyworrier 2 года назад +3

      Using gas stations as pickup or drop-off points is standard procedure for Greyhound. Has been for many years.

      @@holyworrier its dangerous to do so. You have to have some kind of infrastructure at the point of drop off.

      @@jamesbarker5254 - Generally, the proprietor of the gas station will put packages to be shipped in an outside locked shed, to be picked up by the driver. It's usually during business hours that folks are waiting for the bus, but with the Dog, schedules get way behind. People who are waiting at night generally are being delivered to the pickup spot by family, and are waiting in the car for the bus, not camped out. But that's not always the case. Greyhound riders are generally in the lowest income bracket, and desperation often characterizes their lives.
      It would, of course, as you suggested, be safer to have a facility where people could wait for the bus.

      Greyhound should go to their individual houses and pick them up. It can't be more than 3 or 4 people getting on there at any one time. It would not add more than 5 or 10 minutes to the schedule. Maybe Greyhound could distinguish itself from the airlines that way because no airline is going to come to your house and pick you up as a part of your airline ticket.
