    City of Sedona ArizonaSedona AZ (February 11, 2016) – The Northern Arizona Intergovernmental Public Transportation Authority (NAIPTA) is adding another commuter service to its MOUNTAIN LINE and MOUNTAIN LINK transit systems. The commuter vanpool program is ideal for people with daily commutes from outlying County areas into the City of Flagstaff or reverse commutes from the City to outlying areas. Vanpools can be started with as few as five people and have capacity for up to 12. NAIPTA was recently awarded a grant to help offset the ridership costs of vanpool participation.

    20160211_ComunterVanpoolx288Offered as a cost effective and environmentally responsible alternative to single occupant commuting, the goal of the program is to reduce both traffic and parking congestion, greenhouse gas emissions and expand the financial benefits of public transit to a broader share of Coconino County residents.

    While costs for carpooling are negotiated among participants, in vanpools, the cost of a monthly vehicle lease (partially subsidized by –funds from ADOT and Coconino County for commutes starting or ending in Coconino County) and fuel are shared by the group.

    Unlike a personal lease, NAIPTA’s vanpool program includes all scheduled and unscheduled maintenance/service/repairs, 24 hour roadside assistance/towing, loaner vehicle (if needed), commercial insurance with zero deductible and a guaranteed ride home program. Additionally, drivers may use the vehicle during the day.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
