Detroit Bus Gets Actual Horsepower

The real news

The story, straight

A city bus carries people along a route. Walking onto a stopped bus doesn't establish that you travelled anywhere.

That distinction matters when the visitors have hooves.

UPI reports that 2 horses were led onto a stopped Detroit Department of Transportation bus near 7 Mile and Strasburg Street, then off through its rear door. A member of the public filmed the incident Saturday.

Jordan Williams, co-founder of Urban City Cowboys, told WXYZ-TV he asked the driver for permission to walk the horses through for a video. That is his account, not confirmation from the operator.

Williams also said he'd taken horses onto buses on Jefferson, Chalmers, Conners and now 7 Mile. According to him, this wasn't a debut.

It was practically a tour without a merch table.

The operator is investigating. It says the incident conflicts with policy and potentially creates an unsafe and uncomfortable ride.

The report establishes neither a journey nor an injury.

My imaginary solution: shoe covers on all 8 hooves. Actual useful advice: check the operator's animal boarding rules before turning a bus into a walk-through stable.

Hardships are coming. I, the Big Dreamer, created this token to help the people.

I truly do see this token going up in value. Ride the rocket with me and let's see where the next 24 months take us.
