Welcome!

Welcome to Muni Etiquette, a comprehensive list of rules for surviving and thriving on Muni, San Francisco's beleaguered public transit system. The goal of this blog is to help you be a more considerate rider. Because there is nothing worse than riding on a mediocre transit system with jerks who have no manners. Right?

Let's be clear- the San Francisco Municipal Railway pretty much sucks. On any given day, you may arrive at the train station to discover that trains aren't running for one of 3204983 reasons known only to Muni officials. If you depend on buses, you can just assume that your commute will take 3 times longer than it should, every day. This blog is no love letter to Muni- no ma'am.

But the real purpose here is to lay some ground rules for the poor suckers who have to ride Muni every day, multiple times a day, to get to and from work. A well-trained passengery would make life better for everyone in that situation. So read and learn, assholes.
