The vast majority of such systems in the US are limited to people with disabilities.
- maxerickson 8y agoThis is not the impression I have. The one here is open to anyone and even sometimes runs a loop for a local taproom. I guess you could sample 10 or 100 of them and see how many impose restrictions on rider eligibility.
- vonmoltke 8y ago"Vast majority" may have been too strong, but I stand behind "majority". The two programs on that Wiki page that actually have links are for disabled passengers only. Looking at the three systems that have covered areas I have lived, Broward County Transit and New Jersey Transit offer DRT only to those with disabilities, and Dallas Area Rapid Transit has very limited DRT service for non-disabled customers. > The one here is open to anyone and even sometimes runs a loop for a local taproom. If it is running a loop it isn't DRT, it's a jitney.
- maxerickson 8y agoI imagine the urban systems tend to be more restrictive than the rural ones.
