I ride my bike (in the bike lanes, or at least between the paint), and daily, I'm in fear of my life of one of them swerving or turning sharply. They are by far the worst drivers on the road, and I'm certain I'll be hit by one and forced to ride in one if I'm not dead.

Access-a-ride drive like asses. They should pay these people better, and perhaps by the hour.

I agree with above. They are the worst drivers.

I'd rank the Access-A-Ride drivers as among the worst in NYC. A few weeks ago, I was cycling across W. 21st near the West Side Highway, when one of the Access-A-Ride vans came barreling down the street, driving the entire block in the wrong direction on the one-way street. The driver was either oblivious, or just didn't care.
