SAN JOSE (KRON) — You often hear people say, “I was only in the bus lane for a just a second.”
Well, here is a case when all it took was one second.
In San Jose, on First near San Fernando, there are dedicated bus lanes and light rail tracks. During certain times of the day, commercial trucks can use the lane in designated areas to make deliveries. other than that its just for transit buses
That being said, it’s not hard to find people stopping or parking in the bus lane.
Like one man who is dropping off a tray of food, or this driver picking up a passenger. Everyone has an excuse as to whey they were stopped, often it is because they don’t want to pay for parking, or they were only going to be a minute.
A man smoking with his weed buddy popped out from the bus lane, only to be flagged down by a San Jose police officer
The officer smelled weed after he approached the car, and it turns out, the driver had one not so minor issue–he was on probation.
