SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) – An event intended to unveil dozens of new San Francisco Municipal Railway buses hit a snag Monday when one of the buses malfunctioned.

Mayor Ed Lee and other city officials were on the new bus waiting to be taken to City Hall after a news conference at Pier 48 near AT&T Park when the mishap occurred.

The bus could not be driven away, and the mayor and the rest of the group had to be ushered onto another bus. Muni spokesman Paul Rose said it appears there was an issue with the bus’ hydraulic system.

1. Oh great

It's lucky the RepubliKlan is virtually non-existant in SF, as I can imagine what their response to this is going to be.
