Bus-ted!

From the Miami Herald's Amy Sherman:

"Broward County officials acted arbitrarily and used 'fundamentally flawed logic' when they recommended that the county buy buses that cost at least $16 million more than those offered by a competitor, a hearing officer found in a report released Thursday.
The recommendation that the county award the contract to the low bidder comes as Broward County Transit is struggling with a shortage of working buses and mechanics to fix them.
In fact, BCT is so desperate for buses that starting next month, it will use old Miami-Dade Transit buses that Dade had planned to retire . . . . The buses have about 500,000 miles on them . . . ."
