Learning the ropes of paying for a CTA bus ride from one of the drivers
2012-02-02 17:09:00 I’ve been on a CTA bus maybe four or five times since moving to Chicago. And every time, I’ve been unsure about how to go about paying for the trip. Do I need all quarters? Will people behind me in line to get on the bus get mad if they see me staring at the... Read more »
10 NASCAR drivers fans should watch during the 2012 NASCAR Sprint Cup Serie
2012-01-19 22:26:00 After a two month active off season that featured several announcements and changes, last week, NASCAR teams were hard at work at Daytona International Speedway for NASCAR?s Winter Testing. SPEEDtv.com and SPEED TV televised the 3 day event live and in watching most of the coverage, this was the first time for fans and media to see most of the off season changes at work. 1. A.J. Allmendinger: In 2012, I truly believe that this is just about AJDinger?s last chance to find success in NASCAR?s elite series, but I really do like what I have seen so far with testing with A.J. Allendinger driving the #22 Shell-Pennzoil Dodge for Penske Racing. I believe that this is the year for him to break out and win his first Cup Series race. He has the talent, the equipment, the people and a good teammate in Brad Keselowski, so let?s see what he can do. 2. Jeff Burton: Burton hasn?t been very successful in the Cup Series in the last few years now, but he does have a new winning crew chief joining...

Car Seat Sensors Can ID Drivers by Their Bottoms
2012-01-02 06:01:00 Someday we'll be "flying" our cars and computers by the seat of our pants, if a unique new sensor system developed by engineers at Japan's Advanced Institute of Industrial Technology is adopted by car & chair makers. It seems each person leaves a unique impression when they sit down and the resulting digital pressure patterns can be used to identify drivers from the bottom up, so to speak.

If you’re walking (or, I’m so, so sorry) on a bike, I’m guessing you’d go with pouring. So if you’re, oh, I don’t know,...
Union Contracts More Important Than Patients For Union Drivers
2011-05-29 18:02:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Priorities. Union guys have priorities, you know? For instance, in New Jersey earlier this year a bunch of union drivers for the Communications Workers of America (CWA) decided that it was more important to have a "sick-out" and strand sick elderly people, preventing them getting to their life-saving medical treatment than do their jobs. State Sen. Joe Kyrillos, (R-13), of Middletown wasn't too happy with these uncaring union louts, either. "It is outrageous that 174 disabled and elderly clients who depend on SCAT were stranded by what appears to be a coordinated effort by employees to disrupt service without notice," said Kyrillos. "The actions of these workers is completely unbecoming of any public servant, and should...

Complaints about CTA drivers fall this year compared to 2009
2010-12-14 14:00:00 Complaints about CTA operators have dropped about 16% through October of this year, compared to the same period last year. There were 701 fewer complaints so far this year.At the same time, compliments about CTA personnel have fallen by 26%, with 326 compliments handed out by customers.One black mark on service from year to year is a slight increase in complaints about CTA workers failing to assist customers. There were 22 more such complaints this year for a 3% increase.These stats were reported in Monday's Getting Around column by Jon Hilkevitch "CTA bus driver models customer service."I can't kelp but wonder if complaint are down this year because of service cuts -- fewer drivers delivering less service means fewer complaints....

Blue Laws, Tax Dollars and More Drunken Drivers
2010-11-30 06:16:00 Blue Laws, Tax Dollars and More Drunken Drivers I happen to come upon a piece about Downers Grove and its limited Sunday "Blue Law." Downers Grove has allowed the sale of spirits after 12 Noon, but hotels and restaurants wanted the law changed to 9am. Their argument was that they would be able to capture the Chicago Bears Game clientele...If I recall, doesn't the majority of Bears Games begin at Noon?

Jamie McMurray wins, more chase drivers drop in points, while Johnson spins
2010-10-19 01:06:00 Welcome readers, after this past weekend?s racing at Charlotte Motor Speedway, the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series is official half way home in the chase for the Sprint Cup which means we have just five races to go in the 2010 season. So what are the top 6 NASCAR things learned from Charlotte II race. 1. Jamie McMurray is the comeback story of 2010. Since Jamie McMurray joined back up with Chip Ganassi and his raceteam Earnhardt-Ganassi Racing with Felix, McMurray, who is having his best season to date in his Cup Series career, has found success in several races this season including winning the Daytona 500, the Brickyard 400 and last Saturday night?s Charlotte 500 along with finishing second at Talladega in the spring race and now being 13th in points. What a run for McMurray, now all he needs is a contract for 2011. 2. Jimmie Johnson and the #48 team are both lucky and good. Earlier on in last Saturday night?s Charlotte 500, Jimmie Johnson found himself spinning off of turn 2 aft...
NASCAR: Tony Stewart wins, several chase drivers fall, Mark Martin leads mo
2010-10-13 21:57:00 As several people decided to mourn this past weekend at Auto Club Speedway in Southern California as the Pepsi Max 400 was the final fall race at the speedway, I have to admit that I believe NASCAR made the right call in pulling one of California Speedway?s Cup dates. However I also will say that the date should have been either open or go to Canada or even Iowa Speedway and not to Kansas Speedway. But it is what it is. However even though there wasn?t a big crowd on hand for Sunday?s Cup Series race, the final fall race at California Speedway would go out in style as being an exciting race to watch. I especially loved the fact that California Speedway and NASCAR made this race a 400 mile, instead of 500 mile. Here are my top 5 things learned at California. 1. Kyle Busch vs. David Reutimann and Chase drivers vs. Non-chase drivers. When it comes to Busch vs. Reutimann, I have to say that I agree that Reutimann had to strike back. Kyle Busch has to learn that he can?t keep runnin...
NASCAR: Tony Stewart and Jeff Gordon among other drivers struggling to find
2010-09-18 23:34:00 As NASCAR continues to grow and the cost of racing also continues to grow, the search for sponsorship becomes increasing harder. But now with a recession going on and companies cutting advertising budgets and at the same time looking for new ways to get there product in front of the consumer, that pursuit for sponsorship dollars becomes even tougher, but even then while I?m not surprised that some NASCAR teams aren?t finding sponsorship considering performance on-track and results is what sells, I am surprised that top drivers like the two-time Cup Series champion and team owner Tony Stewart and 4-time Cup Series Champion Jeff Gordon are. Tony Stewart: During the normal press conferences at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway for the Sylvania 300 and race 1 of the chase for the Sprint Cup, Tony Stewart touched on the on-going search. IN YOUR SEARCH FOR SPONSORSHIP, HAVE YOU BEEN FORCED TO TRY NEW APPROACHES OR APPROACH DIFFERENT KINDS OF COMPANIES THAT YOU DIDN'T NECESSARILY THINK ...
Rapist Men in India to Breastfed car drivers in Saudi Arabia
2010-09-18 16:32:00 Chief Justice of India K.G. Balakrishnan remarked that ?due regard? should be given to the wishes of a rape victim if she chooses to marry the rapist or have the baby conceived as a result of the crime. This means ' if a rapist gives consent to marry a woman he has raped, there lies an opportunity of rehabilitating victim in the society?. This is an example of a modern welfare mechanism of Indian Society whose ancient mythology cites rape as one of the eight forms of marriage called ' Rakshas Vivah - devilish marriage '. In a vocal and argumentative India society, the views of Chief Justice were promptly denounced by woman organizations.In the space of a year, Official Saudi cleric proclaimed that if a woman breastfeeds another male, he become her son. Another debate followed - expressing shock, surprise on such a statement but this statement was smartly used by intelligent Saudi woman to substantiate their claims of letting them drive. Saudi woman are prevented from driving on ...

Bus drivers with DUIs got CTA jobs back to lure union to negotiating table
2010-08-19 14:00:00 A longtime CTA Tattler reader tipped me off to this Fox Chicago News story I missed last week: Three CTA bus drivers fired after they were caught allegedly drinking and driving are now back behind the wheel, and the CTA appears to regret its decision. A Fox Chicago News/ Better Government Association investigation found the process that allowed the drivers to get their jobs back is a lesson in Chicago-style backroom wheeling and dealing. The bus drivers were all charged with drunk driving while they were off-duty and were subsequently fired after they lost their Commercial Driver's Licenses. Under CTA rules, any driver who does not have a valid CDL for 180 days can be terminated. CTA President Rich Rodriguez...

Cook County Board to Extort Suburban Drivers
2010-07-24 17:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Oh, the games Cook County Board President little Todd Stroger plays. And they are always about sticking it to the taxpayers, aren't they? Stroger and his Democrat co-conspirators have really proven that county Democrats are more like a criminal syndicate as opposed to proper representatives of the people with a recent move to stick it to suburban drivers in violation of what the suburban cities even want to have happen in their jurisdictions. Little Toddie wanted to have county sponsored red-light cameras positioned throughout the Cook County suburbs so that the county could get more money in the form of mailed fines from drivers. But the suburban towns and cities didn't want the county to intrude...
iPhone App Helps Drivers Find Best Parking Prices
2010-05-13 05:47:00 By Diana Novak Don't get us wrong. Parking in Chicago is still going to gouge you, but maybe now you can get a little less gouged. iPhone users searching for parking in Chicago, will definitely appreciate a new app that allows you to find parking from wherever you're located. The aptly named Chicago Parking App, the creation of Logan Square local Nick Capizzani, aims to help you find the absolute cheapest parking available in your vicinity, whether it is a meter, pay box, or parking structure.

GPS Angel Helps Drivers Avoid Red Light Camera Tickets
2010-05-12 05:56:00 Protect yourself. When you drive in Chicago, America's red light camera capital, protection is what you need to do to insure you don't get bitch slapped with a $100 red light camera ticket. That's the idea behind a niche category of electronic devices which alert drivers to red light camera intersections as they drive. These relatively inexpensive devices utilize GPS and specialty point of interest (POI) databases to give drivers a heads up when RLC intersections are approaching, so you can slow down safely and stop before the light changes. One of these devices is the GPS Angel. Introduced to the U.S. in 2009, the Angel was originally rolled out a few years ago in Europe where speed cameras have...
Parkzing.com Helps Drivers Stay On Top Of Tickets
2010-04-28 07:29:00 New, Free Service Alerts Drivers Of Their Parking TicketsBy Diana Novak In our go-go busy lives, sometimes it's hard to stay on top of everything. Especially when it comes to our parking tickets. But not anymore. A new service called Parkzing.com keeps subscribers to their free service up to date on their parking tickets via e-mail alerts. And, if you like, Parkzing, for a small fee, will even pay your tickets on time before the violation cost doubles. Parkzing is the creation of Aren Sandersen, a San Francisco-based software designer and entrepreneur. Sanderson listened to his friends complain about the plentiful parking tickets in the city and their heavy late fees. "The tickets were easy to forget about and the...

Redeye Discusses Parking Meter Rate Increases With Drivers
2010-02-03 06:02:00 In today's RedEye, reporter Kyra Kyles spent a day talking to drivers in the South Loop, Bronzeville, and Roseland to see how they're reacting to the new meter rates. Kyles' article seems to come to the conclusion that many people are avoiding parking and paying the new meter rates. In one case, one man drives with his buddy into shopping neighborhoods, gets dropped off and has his friend circle the block for a few minutes while he runs into a store or two. Other drivers are refusing to pay 25 cents to run in for a few minutes to get their half caf, double-expresso soy latte with a shot of raspberry. Others park in non-metered spots or risk tickets by...
Twitter Plays Saviour For Drunk Drivers – What Else Will It Carry Thr
2010-01-04 12:12:00 The new year’s eve has always been associated with drinking and joyous revelry. The police in most cities try their best to keep drinking and driving cases in check. In Mumbai there have been 720 cases of drunken driving were held this year, being the highest number of revellers booked by traffic cops. Now most people might wonder how twitter comes into picture. Its come to fore that twitter has been used recently by driver in US to avoid traffic cops. Now this seems to be a real novel way to use twitter. As they say great products have uses that their creators never imagined! This is surely one of those cases. So, if Twitter didn’t exist there would have been another hundred something drunk-but-enthusiastic drivers booked by the cops. The tools that didn’t spoil the new year’s grace for gadget freaks were Twitter, text messages and an iPhone application specifically designed to identify checkpoints. Yet again, after the US Elections and the Iran Revolution...

Drivers union takes swipe at CTA in full page ad
2009-12-04 13:00:00 In a full page ad in Thursday's Sun-Times, the CTA's drivers union took shots at "bloated" CTA management and ineffective state leadership."Given the vital importance of public transportation, it's bewildering that through the years, CTA management and state lawmakers have not come up with a permanent long-term funding plan for mass transit." More specifically: "Decades of systemic mismanagement and political interests have paralyzed the opportunity to produce a stable funding source for the riding public." Then it trots out the tired old argument that the city only give the CTA $3 million -- the same amount for 20 years. I say it's tired because former CTA President Ron Huberman answered those critics when I asked him.Finally, here are the union's...
CTA bus drivers union weighs strike to protest layoffs
2009-11-04 13:00:00 The CTA bus drivers union is considering a strike to protest planned layoffs of about 1,800 members of the Local 241 of the Amalgamated Transit Union, according to a CBS2 Chicago report.The union president, Darrell Jefferson, goes on to insist the CTA's budget deficit is actually $500 million, not the $300 million cited by the CTA. But the union will continue to resist any givebacks, including furlough days.Furthermore, Jefferson says: "Metropolitan Transit Act says, in section 28, that management and exempt people should make up only 3 percent of the total number of employees. We estimate CTA being somewhere like 15 to 18 percent. Laying off people and you're still gonna be heavy in management, I think you're asking for...

NASCAR gets it wrong with telling non-Chase drivers to back off.
2009-10-08 00:16:00 Racing is all about pushing the limits and the #48 and #5 were and are doing just that.Welcome back ladies and gentlemen, over the past three weeks, NASCAR has been pushing the limits with several teams as well as its NASCAR fans and among the first three Chase for the Sprint Cup races has caught my eye in two areas that have just left me asking why they would do that.With New Hampshire two weeks ago in the record books with a good race on the magic mile that ended up being a battle right to the caution flag on the white flag laps that saw Mark Martin hold off hard charging Denny Hamlin and Juan Montoya to win the Sylvania 300 and extend his points lead, it was off to Dover. While Dover didn’t do the chase drivers any favors, the race itself ended up being a sleeper as Jimmie Johnson dominated to win the AAA 400 over him teammate and the point’s leader Mark Martin.However after the race was really where the story lied sort of, it all depended upon who you talked too or listened ...

Bus Drivers Don't Want to Personally Pay for Red Light Tickets
2009-08-20 01:10:00 City bus drivers filed a complaint today against the Regional Transportation Authority to stop the practice of requiring the bus drivers to personally pay for their own red light tickets. According to the complaint, beginning in 2006, "red light cameras" were installed at certain street intersections throughout the western suburbs that, when activated by a vehicle driving through a red light, captured the vehicle's license plate. The complaint goes on to state that the defendant (specifically, the Pace West division of the Pace Suburban Bus Division of the RTA) then began a practice of reassigning the tickets to the individual bus operators....

Bus Tracker info puts drivers at forefront of war on bus bunching
2009-07-06 13:00:00 In this second report from my chat with CTA President Richard Rodriguez, he emphasizes the key role bus drivers play in reducing bus bunching "Bus Tracker is a great tool for us," Roriguez said. "Managers are using the information from Tracker to monitor and manage bunching."And now we're looking at drivers differently -- they are the boss."Then Rodriguez recounts an occasion when he was riding a bus and the light ahead was green, but the driver slowed down."The driver slows as the light changes, and he points to a gadget above his head (a mobile data terminal). It told him to stay instead of going through the light to maintain the proper gap. So it's not just the executive staff...
