While I haven't met all of you, I'm pretty sure most AutoblogGreen readers are a lot more understanding when a particular vehicle isn't as clean as possible than Shelia Bolar is. According to the New York Daily News, Bolar, a public transportation rider (and apparent poet) got angry when the bus she was waiting for turned out to not be a hybrid one. After yelling at the driver for a while - he responded by saying that he wasn't in charge of which bus he's assigned - she grabbed his arm and bit him. Through a jacket, a sweater and a shirt, Bolar managed to bruise the driver's arm, but didn't break the skin. The Daily News says Bolar is now facing assult charges and will have to take a psychiatric exam. C'mon, have some sense.
