Beijing Police Name 10 Worst Bus Lines

October 20th, 2007 by Meg

An article in China Daily listed the ten Beijing bus routes where transit police believe robbers are most common.

They are 9, 57, 701, 707, 728, 44, 300, 302, 808, and the Bus Rapid Transit route between Qianmen and Demaozhuang in Daxing district. Some of these bus lines are long-distance rides where passengers often fall asleep, others are full of commuters and a pickpocket is hard to spot in a sea of limbs and bags.

I’ve been on some packed buses and subways in Beijing without any incident (besides the inevitable “HELLOO!!!” *giggle giggle giggle* ) but with the upcoming Olympics, police are cracking down on crime in the city limits.
