Free Buses: Blessing or Headache?

NYC’s free bus pilot made rides more affordable and boosted ridership by 40%, but here’s the catch: only 12% were new riders, and buses actually got slower! Plus, the MTA could be out $700M+ a year if this goes citywide. Also, two Harlem men just got exonerated after 30 years in prison for a crime they didn’t commit—finally, some justice. And the NYPD? A judge just blocked them from firing dozens of officers. Wild day in NYC! #Transportation #NYCNews #FreeBuses
