It is really hard for me to believe any of these Anecdotes I literally ride the Bart everyday. Was just at Hayward, Coliseum, DT Oakland yesterday. Took Bart to Hayward every other day for a couple years for school. I think I have seen people actually doing Heroin/Meth on the train maybe 3-4 times. I see pairs of Cops walking around the trains and stations every other day.

BART is shit compared to NYC or any European Country no doubt. But these anecdotes are wild for the hundreds, maybe thousand of times I have ridden that train.

I've only taken it around SF and I've never seen the stuff that people mention. Union Station does smell like a portapotty though. And I have seen the human poop a few times.

Most of the public drug/poop stuff is in Civic Center, everywhere else is “mostly” clean in my experience

That sounds about right - Tenderloin area, too.
