[nagdu] bringing shopping carts on the bus

[Steven Johnson]

Just to clarify that if you do put your cart in an accessible seat space,
and a customer who comes on-board who requires that space for their mobility
needs, they take priority over your groceries as the space is a paid space.
Unless of course, you also pay for the space which could be another
possibility.  Again, courtesy is knowing when the peak usage times are of
your bus system.

the buses do have Ramps, but to get to the back of the bus, where you're not
taking up excessive room, you have to go up two steps after you go past the
back doors of the bus.  

that is the major problem I see with going to the back of the bus.
