I have friends that ride MB and they complain about the pickup locations (mission street). Apparently they are worried about their safety in that area because they are being picked up when its still dark or just after sunrise when the street is basically empty.
Valencia seems like it would make a lot more sense from a safety standpoint.
I have personally heard amazing things about MB.
- raywu 11y agoHey thank you, let us look into that. That's great feedback!
- wtvanhest 11y agoYou bet. If I didn't have a commuter shuttle, I would definitely be riding MB. I hope you guys have a ton of success. If I were you, I would spend some time actually going to shuttle stops at 6:30AM to see what they are like and what the customer deals with first hand. I think there are some other issues like maps not working always or drivers picking up in a 20 minute window (not optimal for knowing when you need to be ready in the AM since its too wide of a window.)
- raywu 11y agoHuge fan of that approach. We'll act on it. Thank you!
- sneak 11y agoIf you are unsafe waiting on a street after dark, you are unsafe waiting on a street precisely one block west after dark.
- wtvanhest 11y agoMaybe you don't know the area, but Valencia is full of people going to work at 6:30am on commuter buses. Mission street, not so much. It is desolate and anyone waiting for a daily black car service for 20 minutes definitely stands out and may become a target. The two people that I know that get rides from their are female which sort of compounds the problem.
