The MTA should just realize their limits and give up. They will NEVER get this working.

As I understand it, the problem with running a pilot program in Brooklyn or Queens or the Bronx is the very fact that they won't have the same issues. If you run a successful pilot on a system in Queens, there's no guarantee it'll work in Manhattan because of the skyscrapers and the increased traffic. If you run a successful pilot on a system in Manhattan, it will work in the other boroughs.

How come other cities can get these programs to work, no problemo? NYC is the center of the universe. Bus/ subway info is important. This ain't Des Moines!
