About this listen

In this third installment of the Dao of Doug series, this 2019 audiobook, narrated by Driver Doug, Douglas Meriwether, continues the anecdotal essay style storybook describing the life of a transit operator in San Francisco: the ways in which to handle problems on the electric bus as an operator, more information about the streets of San Francisco, and how to save time while riding mass transit.

Also packed into the audiobook are suggestions on how to improve safety while waiting for the bus, riding a bike, and how to quickly allow an operator assist you in getting around to your destination.

Tongue and cheek humor notwithstanding, Doug points out what both operators and passengers can do to avoid lost time and confusion in getting around the city. First time riders and visitors may find this missive interesting and helpful. Veteran bus drivers and riders may also get a kick out of hearing the similarities of their experiences while riding Muni. Indeed, Doug has been asked many times about why he should write a book about driving for Muni. Here it is!

It isn't necessary to have read or listened to books 1 or 2 to dive right in on this latest publication. Doug's first book is entitled, The Dao of Doug: Finding Zen in San Francisco Transit: A Bus Driver's Perspective, and The Dao of Doug 2: The Art of Driving a Bus - A Line Trainer's Guide.

Doug decided to shorten the title to five words on this third book; one and two's titles are 20 words long! Step into the Muniverse and get inside an SFMTA bus driver's head! Please step up and have it ready!
