Metro Ridership Dangerous?

I know, I know, people are piling on Metro. However, WTOP's latest report should raise the hackles on its riders.

Metro train and bus operators reportedly have been the subject of more than 4,000 safety complaints since 2004. Wow!
Reports of speeding in residential neighborhoods, failing to obey traffic devices including stop lights and myriad collisions with pedestrians and other cars, are among the transgressions.

In addition to safety issues there are also numerous instances of discourteous and in some cases disgusting behavior.
Wheelchair passengers report not only neglect but instances where erratic driving caused them to tip-over. Sleeping on the job? Check. Watching TV while driving? Check. Assaulting a passenger carrying a child? Check. The list goes on and on.

So take a moment and go the to WTOP link and it will open your eyes to how naive we may all have been. http://wtopnews.com/?nid=226&sid=1787491
