A bill to survey hate crimes and harassment of women, AAPI women, LGBTQ riders on 10 transit systems becomes law.
Sina San waits for the A line train on Monday, July 24, 2023. A new law approved Oct. 7, 2023, will require transit agencies, including LA Metro, to survey women about their experiences on transit, focusing on safety and harassment.
Female ridership on LA Metro buses fell from 53% in early 2020 to 49% in 2022, according to a survey taken from March to May of 2022. And female ridership on trains dropped from 46% to 44%. “The numbers don’t lie. A staggering 77% of women experience sexual harassment in public spaces, and almost a third of that harassment occurs on mass transit,” said Min in a press release. “Additionally, the AAPI community has seen a surge in hate incidents in public spaces, many occurring on our public transit systems.”
