"The absence of current location and ETA information for most busses is completely absurd in this era of GPS equipped mobile devices that we live in. Which makes me think of Uber - it seems like they might eventually try to disrupt busses the same way they disrupted taxis. Busses are basically just a big car pool, and it all boils down to a logistical problem after all - and an an app that's armed with knowledge of where the vehicles are, where the passengers are, and where the passengers want to go could handle it way for efficiently than busses traveling on fixed routes at fixed times. If I could pull out my phone and say "I want to get from here to someewhere else" and have it offer me the option of a slightly less convenient bus-like service for a lot less money than a cab-like service, I'd probably opt for the bus at least occasionally." - Eric P
