Greyhound Buses
Idling hours on end

In light of global warming it is disgusting to see the Greyhound buses idling hours on end. I live behind a Greyhound bus station and there is a big sign in the station's window asking the bus drivers to turn off their buses. This does not always happened. The continuous idling disrupts my sleep and the exhaust filters through my windows often setting off my fire alarm. I have complained about this before, but nothing seems to stop the bus drivers from leaving their engines on. We have even had confrontation with the drivers when we have personally gone down to the station and ask them to turn off the buses. Idling contributes to air and noise pollution and should be stopped. I phoned our town office and there is even a bylaw that prohibits idling. But the noise and stink continues. Greyhound really does contribute to global warming and should be fined.
