The Orange Line Ought to be Sponsored by Target

L.A.'s latest attempt at mass transit is a bit hit... or is being hit on a regular basis. They've now had their sixth accident in six weeks:

Six people suffered minor injuries Wednesday when a sport utility vehicle running a red light crashed into the side of an Orange Line bus, authorities said.

The 11 a.m. collision at an intersection in the Lake Balboa neighborhood was the sixth in six weeks along the new 14-mile Orange Line busway.

The spate of crashes has transportation officials rethinking some of the east-west busway's 36 San Fernando Valley intersections — adding some safety measures while removing others that don't seem to help.

For some reason these big silver articulated buses are invisible to motorists. Drivers keep running red lights and smacking into them.

I think I'll just keep driving my car all by myself and contributing to the pollution and traffic problems. It's much safer.
