September 10


One of the nice things about commuting in summer is that I can get to work about 15 minutes faster than during the school year.

In theory, I understand why everybody on the road needs to stop when a school bus stops to discharge children. Safety first, after all. When you live near a school, though, drive by a couple of others, and head to work around the time that schools are letting out, you spend a lot of time waiting for the kids to leave the bus.

Today, this bus disgorged teenagers from both the main and emergency exits at Forest Hills Station. I had plenty of time to grab my camera to document it -- it took almost two minutes. At least it didn't make me late for work.
