Riding on public transportation can be a harrowing experience. Drug use, theft, assault and lack of a clean environment are making riders on public buses and metro lines feel unsafe. Public transportation crime in Los Angeles has risen sharply. Security guards at metro stations and on public transportation can reduce crime and poor behavior.

Crime In Plain View. Riders on Los Angeles public transportation complain that drug use and drug sales happen in the open. People on drugs or who are suffering from mental illness harass riders and commit crimes. Research has shown that most of those causing problems on the metro lines get on without paying. Security guards stationed at train station entry gates can spot those trying to gain access illegally. These individuals can be then turned away before they can enter the waiting area or board the train.

Security Guards On Buses and Trains. Security guards can be stationed strategically on buses and in train cars, watching for criminal or inappropriate behavior. They can then defuse arguments, remove those causing trouble and if criminal activity occurs, detain the perpetrators until law enforcement arrives.

Public transportation is meant for all of us to use without fear of being assaulted or subjected to violent or inappropriate behavior.
