Compassion from a fellow BART rider

Yesterday was one of those days that I needed to take BART into SF from Concord. I boarded the PBP train at Montgomery at approx. 4:50pm to return home and was in line for the first car. When the train pulled up, it was already SRO. I held on as best as I could until we reached 12th St in Oakland. An older gentleman sitting in one of the ADA/senior seats got up and said, "I have a disability, but it looks like you need the seat more than I do." The gentlemen stood for another three stops and was able to sit down again. Thank you so much! My only complaint is the young, twenty-something blond who sat next to him in the seat. She could have offered her seat. Before I became disabled, I did that on a regular basis. Anyway, it's nice to see compassion among my fellow BART riders!
