Safe Travel at Risk?
If the Oceanside Transit Center security personnel stopped obsessing about petty issues such as bicyclists, they would have plenty of time to devote to real security concerns. A few weeks ago I witnessed a hilarious - and rather vulgar - tongue lashing by a security 'lady' behind a remote camera monitor and microphone of a young man stepping over the yellow line, fifteen minutes before the train was scheduled to arrive. As rarely as I use the train, there is usually some petty issue the security people are getting into. Hiring fewer, but qualified, professionals would be a good investment in travelers' security. Or else send them for training in the Bay Area BART for a month or two.— January 1, 2010 12:03 p.m.
