The same pattern

Bart BART saw a boost in traffic after the bridge collapse earlier this week. But KCBS says that as the week wore on, people started migrating back to their cars:

The final figures aren't actually in for the entire week, but Metropolitan Transportation Commission spokesman John Goodwin told KCBS that Monday traffic across the Bay Bridge was down by 18%. "That dropped to 14% below normal on Tuesday and then 11% below normal on Wednesday," he said. "So there's a clear trend line there." Corresponding BART numbers show those drivers did hop on board for a while, but now they appear to be inching back into their cars. "As they realized that the situation was perhaps not quite as bad as we had feared it might be," explained Goodwin.
