“I was harassed so much, I stopped taking the bus.”
Location: 90 & 70 bus lines
Time: Night (7:30pm-12am)
I was harrassed so much on these bus lines particularly on U Street and then on the 70 around Georgia Ave that I stopped riding the bus. I had men expose their penis, fights broke out, women get in my face, young men just generally bother me.
