From a tipster:
This is the third time I’ve seen the SFPD doing a sting operation pulling over people driving in the Buses Only lane on Third Street between Bryant and Brannan.
The same cop pulls someone over, gives a ticket, circles the block and waits for the next victim.
He is on at least his tenth ticket in the last two hours. Beware of driving in the Bus Only lane.
Is this a targeted effort intended for some specific purpose? Is a crackdown afoot? We’d love to tell you more, but neither the MTA nor (so far) the SFPD have any insight into what might be going on here.
Have you seen cops lying in wait for errant drivers in the transit only lanes, or been caught up in a Bus Only trap? Let us know.
