Why is the MTA allowing its bus drivers to be mugged?
Two drivers who have been assaulted say that theyve been telling bosses for years there should be extra security but that the requests have fallen on deaf ears at the cash-strapped agency. “As soon as I put my car key into my pocket, three people came from behind me, knocked me to the ground and started punching and kicking me,” said Diane Monges, 49, a bus operator for 21 years.

I don’t care how cash-strapped you are. There are certain things that must be done. Ensuring the safety of your employees is one of those things. If the MTA can’t afford it can the NYPD patrol the area?
