      <![CDATA[You'd think with all the cancellations they could increase the service that is running so the buses aren't so jam packed, I'm sure there's a bunch of drivers that simply can't make it into work but as you go downtown every single bus is filled to the brim because so few buses are actually running.  They should still be using the same number of buses on the road just fewer routes, because so many people still depend on the bus.

      <![CDATA[For 99.5% of the year, bendy busses are an advantage. Without a bendy bus, you have to have more smaller busses. You cannot have a bus that long without making it bendy in the middle, or it would never be able to turn a corner on a normal city street.<br />
<br />
But for the average of 3 days a year of snow in Seattle, they are a nightmare. <br />
