The Bus News Update

My Dear Readers, 
I think you are wondering what ever happened to the Bus News Updates? 

Well times are trying and this certainly is a sad one. To help you remember,  This will help you remember about the former Bus News. Well, This had happened since May. 
 The City of Çorlu (remember in the other blog how this City is buddies with the CHP Party??) had closed down the Mini Bus System. 
So, Let's give you a mental vision of what is happening as I have to figure out how you all can see pictures (Maybe have the Long Rock build me a Webpage!!)
Anyway... Imagine a city of almost a Million people. Almost.. So imagine the area of almost the size Sandy, West Valley City... But in a smaller land area. Got it? Then imagine only about 80 buses. Now here in Turkey there are city buses and there are Private Buses. Private Buses here in Turkey service the people here in the city but there are businesses that take the people from city to city, and they are not allowed in the city limits anymore. They also have an over crowding of buses. I mean, Imagine city buses made for 35-40 people but 55-60 people on the bus. This is not an over exaggeration, actually this is under exaggeration. The reason being is from time to time when I watch the over full buses turn, I wonder when I will hear on the news that in Çorlu a City Bus was so full it fell over turning a corner.Well, The Blue Buses that Mr Baba was driving for and manager of over the last 18 years are actually legal and to shut them down is unconstitutional and this was proven by many people who went to Lawyers to read the Laws of Buses. This is a huge blow to the 200 families that has been effected by this. My Turkish Father in Law has been meeting with Lawyers and trying to get it opened. 
It has negatively effected his family and caused us a lot of stress. Sadly this is not USA where you can sue people and heads will roll. 
When or If this changes I will certainly let my readers know.
