• It Takes a Full Bus (grist.org) — A near-future electric bus route in a rainy Pacific Northwest county struggles to serve a stranded rider trying to reach Woodinville's old town center, which lies just outside the normal demand-based network. Fellow passengers and the driver ultimately reroute and even override automation to get the rider safely home to Woodinville, highlighting access gaps beyond the urban core.
