AN NBC BAY AREA DIGITAL ORIGINAL INVESTIGATION
'DERAILED' CHAPTER 6: Tunnel Vision
Most people in the San Francisco Bay Area seem to have a #BART story: good, bad, weird. BART is a lifeline for commuters with 723 trains, 122 miles of track, 48 stations, and more than 420,000 rides each day. Those trips, however, can sometimes be dangerous. Violent crime on BART has more than doubled in recent years.
An analysis by the NBC Bay Area Investigative Unit reveals BART has a higher rate of violent crime than transportation systems in New York, D.C., and Atlanta. The Investigative Unit spent months recording on BART trains across the Bay Area, at all hours, to explore how a once renowned transportation network became one of the most dangerous in the country.
In Chapter 6, of our DERAILED series, NBC Bay Area reports on several major developments since the initial release of our investigation into BART, including an outpouring of viewer comments detailing bizarre, uncomfortable, and dangerous situations on BART. Just days after the Investigative Unit launched the series - which exposed serious safety concerns - a passenger was killed on BART, and the new head of the agency pledged to dedicate millions of dollars to strengthen security throughout the transportation system. Senior Investigative Reporter Bigad Shaban reports in Chapter 6 of DERAILED.
