I believe Vanessa is the name of the company.

I think you should dress up like a giant can of Goya beans, and stand in front of the Vanessa van to be extra sure he sees you and stops.
Please?

You have to flag them down like a gypsy cab in NY .But you have to be in a real bus stop. And then after you get on, you have to yell out "Next Stop" before your stop. They don't automatically stop at every stop. Good luck.

Maybe they pick you up if you weren't wearing a white sheet and holding a burning cross...... Darn, that was going to be my joke! But you got here first. See, I was going to use this quote: Quote: Is there something else about your appearance which you are not sharing? and say something about the white hood. Great minds, I guess.

Did you really just say that the jitney did not pick you up because you are white? Seriously?
JCList rocks.

I'm pretty sure the drivers lease the time on these buses, its in their interest to pick up as many passengers as possible so you're probably doing something wrong.

I'm like the whitest dude ever and I ride jitneys all the time. They will often stop for me if I am far away and they see me running. I have never experienced what you are describing. Is there something else about your appearance which you are not sharing?

some of the vans have vanessa on the side (vanessa is either the make or model).
I too when I first started felt they were being racist, but then I realized it was because I was standing in the wrong place or didn't flag them down. If they don't see someone that they think will board, they keep going instead of stopping. btw, you should edit your post... makes you look ignorant.

First time I've heard the term "vanessa" used for the jitneys. Why do you say they are "...aka the "vanessa" buses? I use the jitneys all the time and never have them pass me by so long as I am standing in the right place where they make pickups. Oh, and the only thing "...raicst?(sic!) ignorant? or just plain stupid?" is your spelling.

I was waiting for a jitney bus aka the ''vanessa'' buses or immigrant buses as I like to call them.
I waited 15 minutes, 3 buses passed me up didn't pick me up I'm a white guy. Is it me or these pieces of **** just like to pick up their own kind?
