Safety Advisory: Be Safe, Be Seen!

Use extra caution with darker and rainy days ahead.

It is now dark enough in the early morning and late evening that your bus operator may have difficulty seeing you alongside the road. Follow these tips to stay safe while boarding your bus:

• Stand in a well-lit spot and use a flashlight or safety flasher. You can also use your smartphone as a source of light to be visible to the operator.
• Laser-type lights can be a hazard to the bus operator. Please use flashlights or safety flashers and shine them on yourself or on the ground, never at the bus.
• Pick up a Kitsap Transit safety flasher at the Customer Service office inside the Bremerton Transportation Center or ask your driver. 
• Please board the bus with caution, using handrails where available. During rainy weather, the bus floors and stairs can become slippery. 

Be Safe Out There!
