The chp handles buses, bay area, ride, and the puc which is the state puc regulates the physical bus itself and the mta can limit the size, and of the vehicles on the streets and which streets the vehicles particular sizes can move around on. And where they can stop. You used to work for mta. But whether or not a joint hearing is valuable, is something that you could discuss. Just as a side note, im super unclear on commissioner hydes monarch meeting as it relates to agenda and permission.
