[CCCNFBW] C-Tran Advocacy Suggestions

[Kaye Kipp]

Those suggestions are great.  This doesn't happen too often, but some
drivers will automatically grab for the seatbelt and either hand it to me or
try to buckle it.  I would suggest that might be a topic for discussion.

have to the list serve for discussion, thanks
