It seems obvious to me that the bus drivers & riders will come out much
better than LRT in this. After all, you will have 1 LRT driver for several
hundred passengers, vs. about 2 or 3 dozen passengers / driver on the bus
system. So based just on these numbers, the bus system is likely to be
spending much more per passenger mile on security.
