Two people are accused of entering and driving an empty train and crashing it - without any injuries.

Coolest kid in her school now for sure.

    First off, epic joyride. That’s how you end up with a nickname you get to explain when you’re 50.

    Second off, we keep saying more people should take public transportation, and I feel this arrest sends a mixed message.

        Either way the nickname should be “Subway”.

        “Did you meet Subway?” “… What?” “You gotta hear this story, dude! Gramma, tell Ricky your story!”

        “Did you meet The Subway Murderer? Dude, don’t fuck with her, she runs this cell block.”

          “Pink Joyride” would be pretty good too.

          Surveillance images released by police showed one suspect dressed fully in pink - including a shower cap…

          The conductor just called, she’s going to drop by later on

    This girl is a legend.

    EDIT:

    The second person was described by the NYPD as a male with a slim build and light complexion, who was last seen wearing a blue tank top and red shorts, and carrying a black backpack.

    Wait…so, a Pokemon trainer???

    Look, I’m not saying crashing public transportation should be allowed…

    … but as the protagonists of a 1980s school comedy, I feel like this can’t end too harshly for them or else it’ll just be bleak and unwatchable.

      They get cheered by the entire school outside the police station and the principal and the police chief end up tied to each other and a pole inside a car going on a loop between The Bronx and Coney Island.

    That’s definitely a once in a lifetime experience, I can’t really knock them for the thrill of it.

    Little did these folks know Steam is doing a Planes Trains and Automobiles Sale right now to get their big vehicle driving fix.

    Funny that BBC describes the images but doesn’t bother putting them in the article. Did they receive this news via paper telegram, dictated but not read?

    Anyone know how hard these trains are to drive? Could you start one and drive it without any previous experience?

      I think this article answers the second question you asked.

        It says, ‘It’s unclear at this point the experience of these two individuals,[or] where they got it.’ which doesn’t really tell you if they had any experience before they got in the train.
