Took the Gillig 4014H hybrid home

Took the Gillig 4014H hybrid home. 🚍 I get home off the bus smell burnt diesel. I look up and the bus is blowing out so much black smoke it’s blotting out the street light. Thank you for smoking. 🚬 

I though the DEC was requiring them to only run buses like that on South Pearl Street to protect air quality. It’s a hybrid, so it’s green smoke, right?

Or maybe this is to make up for running the electric bus earlier in the day on the 18. Run zero emissions bus during the daylight hours and run 100 percent opacity emissions buses after dark.
