This is a problem because people are unsafe while travelling to work and school. People should feel safe and protected when riding public transit, not scared for there life.

It happened at 8:30 am and 10 people were shot. This shows how dangerous the subways have become recently. The cameras in that station were all not working at the time. This made the shooter incredibly hard because they had no idea what they looked like.

Many people are scared that they will be attacked or robbed if they take the subway because of how dangerous it has been lately. This is a problem because many people don't have any other ways to get to work and school. Other ways of transportation like Ubers and driving your own car are very costly and not as efficient. ]]> 2022-05-04 18:53:39 UTC https://padlet.com/florenceh5/1q1nptzqajbgbj20/wish/2170443907 florenceh5 https://padlet.com/florenceh5/1q1nptzqajbgbj20/wish/2170444304 This graph shows how many transit riders stopped taking trains and buses when the first lock down hit. With less people riding the subway, the more unsafe it will become. Its like the phrase "safety in numbers". If there is 50 people in a train car, a person is less likely to commit a crime then if it was a car of 5 people.]]> 2022-05-04 18:53:58 UTC https://padlet.com/florenceh5/1q1nptzqajbgbj20/wish/2170444304 florenceh5 https://padlet.com/florenceh5/1q1nptzqajbgbj20/wish/2170444588 This graph shows crime rates contrasted between 2019 and 2020. As you can see after 2020 crime increased a lot. This is because 2020 was when the pandemic hit. Lots of people stopped taking the trains, and so the trains became very unsafe.]]> 2022-05-04 18:54:13 UTC https://padlet.com/florenceh5/1q1nptzqajbgbj20/wish/2170444588 florenceh5 https://padlet.com/florenceh5/1q1nptzqajbgbj20/wish/2170444929 This picture shows how we can prevent the amount of crime in our buses and trains. With more police, cameras, and everyday people riding the train, we can make public transit a safe place for everyone. ]]> 2022-05-04 18:54:28 UTC https://padlet.com/florenceh5/1q1nptzqajbgbj20/wish/2170444929
