Its still in testing, and also those gaps in the system (some places online, other places not) may play a role there. Its subject to the same kinks and faults that occur inherently in ATS, since its based solely on what ATS sees and does.

You don't have any understanding why people use the buses. People who use it on Manhattan where they could take a subway are obviously not in a rush. They sacrifice time for comfort, especially if they are elderly, handicapped, temporarily handicap
