SHUTTLE FACTS, TIPS, AND COURTESIES:
The van is white and has the word " Shuttle" written on its side.
The shuttle is like a bus, not a taxi. It follows specific routes and stops. One complete campus tour takes approximately 20 minutes.
Smith students drive the shuttle. It is a work-study job and the shift is 4 hours. You can look it up on JobX.
Please do not make personal demands about the music or opening/closing the windows, etc. The driver usually needs things the way they are in order to stay awake and alert.
The van usually spends about 5 minutes at each of the stops. A little longer if needed.
If you see the van going by, you can try to wave your arms and if the driver sees you and it is safe to stop, she may do so.
No more then six passengers in the van at one time.
No food or drinks or smoking in the shuttle.
Please do not ride shotgun, usually the driver has her personal belongings, on the front seat. She will move them if needed.
The shuttle is not allowed to go to off-campus locations.
Doors open from the inside by pressing the button on the handle.
