底特律公布两匹马登上公交车的车内监控：司机笑着迎马进车，市府称已与司机谈话、全员再培训
位于美国密歇根州韦恩县的底特律市，市政府11月12日公布了两匹马登上一辆市公交车的车内外监控视频，并发表声明回应此事。据《底特律自由报》报道，这段长1分35秒的监控显示，司机当时是笑着把两名男子和他们的马迎上车的。市府表示，底特律交通局（DDOT）官员已经与这名司机谈过话，局内所有人员都将接受培训，重新熟悉相关规定；市府同时表示，对纪律处分通常不予置评。
监控画面显示，司机一边笑一边说：「要是它能进来，那就这样吧。」他还问：「嘿，要我放它们进来吗？」司机几次提到「服务动物」，随后放下车门处的轮椅坡道，车上一名乘客和司机都笑着看两名男子把马从前门牵进车厢、再从另一扇门牵下车。画面中看不到其他乘客，车辆前部是空的，事发前车站处只有一个人。马下车后，司机说了一句「太疯狂了」，一名乘客回应「我们没事」，公交车随即驶离，把马和主人留在车站。
底特律市政府在11月12日的声明中说，DDOT欢迎符合《美国残疾人法》要求的服务动物乘车，但这两匹马显然是出于其他原因被带上车的。市长办公室媒体关系副主任 Alexis Ware 表示，市府通常不对任何纪律处分发表评论，DDOT 官员已与司机谈话，全局人员都将接受培训，确保人人清楚各项规定。
声明还说：「我们认识到，视频中的行为意在为一项积极的事业吸引关注。我们同时承认，这给公共交通上的其他乘客以及马匹自身都带来了安全隐患。」声明称，这是一个重新培训 DDOT 公交司机、并向底特律居民做好说明的机会，目的是保证 DDOT 提供安全、准时、高质量的服务。
此事源于11月7日发生在底特律 Seven Mile Road 与 Strasburg Street 路口的一幕：Facebook 用户 Ellessia Drew 拍下两人牵着两匹备鞍的马登上公交车、又从后门下车的画面，视频在社交平台疯传。马主之一、Urban City Cowboys 共同创始人 Jordan Williams 此前对媒体表示，他当天刚为一场给孩子提供骑马体验的筹款活动忙完，看到公交车驶来，便说服司机让他牵马穿过车厢拍一段视频。DDOT 本周早些时候已证实视频为真，并称这一做法不符合 DDOT 规定，可能让乘客感到不安全、不舒适。

Detroit Releases Bus Surveillance Video of Two Horses Boarding: Driver Welcomed Them In; City Says Staff Will All Be Retrained
The City of Detroit, in Wayne County, Michigan, on November 12 released surveillance video from inside and outside a city bus that two horses were led aboard, and issued a statement on the incident. According to the Detroit Free Press, the 1-minute, 35-second clip shows the driver chuckling as he welcomed the two men and their horses onto the bus. The city said Detroit Department of Transportation (DDOT) officials have spoken to the driver, and that everyone in the department will receive training to make sure they are aware of the policies. The city said it does not typically comment on any disciplinary action.
In the footage, the driver can be heard saying, "If he can get in here, it is what it is," and asking, "Hey, you want me to let them in?" The driver says "service animal" a few times before a ramp is lowered from the front door. A passenger on the bus and the driver both smile and laugh as the owners lead their horses through one entrance and promptly exit through another. No other passengers can be seen, the front of the bus appeared empty, and there was one person at the stop before the riders boarded. After the horses got off, the driver says, "That's crazy," a passenger can be heard saying, "We good," and the bus rolls away, leaving the horses and their owners behind at the stop.
In its November 12 statement, the city said that while DDOT welcomes service animals when they meet Americans with Disabilities Act requirements, the horses were apparently brought on the bus for other reasons. Alexis Ware, deputy director of media relations for the mayor's office, said the city doesn't typically comment on any disciplinary action, but that DDOT officials spoke to the bus driver, adding that everyone in the department will receive training to make sure they're aware of the different policies.
"We recognize that the actions in the video were meant to draw awareness to a positive cause. And we also acknowledge that this presented safety concerns for other passengers on public transit and for the horses themselves," the statement said. It added: "This is an opportunity to retrain DDOT bus operators and to educate our Detroit residents on everything that we are doing to guarantee safe, timely and high-quality service through DDOT."
The incident took place on November 7 at Seven Mile Road and Strasburg Street in Detroit, where Facebook user Ellessia Drew filmed two people leading two saddled horses onto a DDOT bus and then out through the rear doors; the video went viral on social media. Jordan Williams, co-founder of Urban City Cowboys and one of the men in the video, previously told reporters he had spent the day giving kids horseback rides at a fundraiser and talked the driver into letting him walk the horses through for a video. Earlier this week, DDOT confirmed the video was real and said the stunt was inconsistent with DDOT policy and potentially created an unsafe and uncomfortable ride for passengers.
