I get the monetization of social media and limits on reel length, but if you watch a video and go to the person's page you shouldn't have to scroll and scroll to find the next video. It should be either linked in the comments or going to the profile should be take you to it automatically.

If I don't find it within a few seconds I move to the next video in my doomscroll.

Me: Metro driver driving the 4 up James hill towards Harborview in a trolley.

Dumbass: Douche nozzle driving older shitbox Chevy p/u.

I'm halfway up the hill between 8th and 9th when dumbass decides he HAS to cut me off to get into the right lane. First of all no bus is climbing that hill fast and has power to accelerate to block someone from switching lanes. Second there's still a bunch of traffic going up the hill but not the full on rush hour traffic, so there's not much spacing since we're all going maybe 10mph.

Well captain shit for brains thinks he's going to just force his way in, in a space that he won't fit. Started getting over when back wheels were about equal to me in the driver's seat. I blow the horn as everyone is slowing since the light has changed to red and he flips me off like it was my fault. Well he's still in the left lane second vehicle back and I'm in the right 3 back. As the light changes and he accelerated his cooler filled with water, some food, looked like a milk jug, and a TON of ice slid off the back of the bed since the tailgate was down and it wasn't secured. EVERYTHING on the street. Felt bad for the car behind him since they were now blocked but a cooler and it's contents and dumbfuck didn't stop at least not before I turned at the intersection.

TL;DR: Dumbass tried cutting me off, didn't make it, flips me off, loses cooler from back of truck spilling it's contents in the street.

Curious why there aren't more fires (at least not reported) from bike/scooter share rides. The amount of abuse they're subjected to from people who don't care, basically worse than rental cars. Seems like with the abuse, being out in all types of weather, constant switching, being loaded in pickup trucks or car trunks to get switched out (at least here) there would be a lot more stories or videos of them on fire.

So why do they seem safe(r) than "whatever brand" sub $1k bike that isn't put thru that same abuse?

YES I KNOW SOME PEOPLE DON'T PAY. I'VE BEEN A DRIVER FOR KING COUNTY METRO OVER 15 YEARS, THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A TIME THAT 100% OF PEOPLE PAY. I'M NOT ASKING ABOUT WHY THEY GET ON IN THE REAR.

I understand busy stops with lots of people as well. That's why I said the 2 scenarios I did. Stopping right where you're standing with the front door or people waiting at the busy door while the front door has 0 people entering or exiting.

So for most it's thinking there will be seats in the back or anxiety. Got it, thanks.

Please read before just commenting "so they don't pay fare"

Why do some of you insist on using the back only?

Plenty of times I've pulled into a zone with only 1 person so I stop with the front door literally a step away from them and door is opening yet they will walk to the back.

Orrrr....

They'll be a group of people waiting, I pull into the zone and everyone lines up at the back waiting for the people exiting before they can get on then waiting for everyone to tap at the rear instead of walking to the front door with no one exiting or entering.

I know there's some that don't pay but the majority will tap their card at the rear door. So why? I'm just curious
