This exactly, and it is doubly concerning when it is a traditionally disadvantaged group.
Isn't it a good thing that transit users are getting the best enforcement of the bylaw? Obviously it would be nice if there were enough resources to enforce it everywhere, but focusing on protecting people in a setting where many can't practically leave if someone is putting them at risk seems good to me.
