$2 for ladder transport
This harrowing, probably-totally-against-the-rules tale arrived in our inbox the other day from Muni rider Christine:
Dear Muni Diaries,
The other day I learned you can’t bring a ladder on Muni.
I borrowed the ladder from a cross-town friend. The 22 bus pulls up, I put my bike on the front, and walk up the stairs with the ladder, and flash my Fast Pass. The driver tells me that I can’t bring the ladder on the bus. Dumbfounded, I stare at him. He tells me it’s “too dangerous.” What?!
Anticipating a very long walk with my bike AND a ladder, I came up with a solution by the time the next 22 pulled up…. 🙂
Camouflaged, my ladder rode happily back to my apartment.

Seen contraband on the bus lately? Let us know: muni.diaries.sf@gmail.com
The driver was probably imagining some Chaplin-esque antics with the ladder when it came time for you to turn around and get off the bus.
Christine, you are my hero. You, and your dangerous ladder. 🙂
