Why the transit site, doesn't simply brief any delays

across the top of their homepage.  They used to, and that worked - around here, it's not like  New York City or Chicago - traffic here isn't an ongoing snarl, in every direction, monday through friday.  Well, last night, while doing dishes, the thought occurred -  the company had likely decided that posting any delays, on their homepage, was putting their riders at risk; since anyone, with malicious intentions, can visit.  

Yep, here we go again.  The reprobates, out there looking to rob some bus person... reprobates doing what they do... adding more hadsles into the lives of people, who get up each day, to go out and earn their money (instead of ripping off the funds of others).

Logging onto the rider's alert site means...yep, you guessed it - another freaking password to remember - more like, forget; it's a human thing.  

Yeah, my phone is outdated, and so doesn't keep up so well with the site's r-u-a-bot checkpoint.  The phone will soon need replaced.  That's some $300 - perhaps, including the $40-ish cost for the protective cover (a plastic unit, which probably costs less than $5, and still turning a profit)  Uhm, am holding off for as long as possible, before shelling out that money - and adding yet another piece of electronics to the overfull landfill pile.
