Abstract
The purpose of this synthesis was to document the state of the practice and report on the practices and policies implemented by transit agencies to deter and mitigate assaults on bus operators. The report incorporates workplace violence issues and up-to-date information on bus operator security measures and practices. The report offers a literature summary of relevant materials; results of a survey distributed to transit agencies in different regions in the United States and Canada; and the results of interviews conducted with key agency personnel. The results of these telephone interviews are presented as profiles with increased coverage of specific security methods and practices used by selected transit agencies. Survey responses from 66 of 88 transit agencies in the United States and Canada, a 75% response rate, are discussed. Twenty-two transit agency profiles offer increased coverage of special security methods or practices of operator security measures used by selected transit agencies, and an appendix of supplemental information contains information about state laws.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
