Today in Inconspicuous Modes of Transit

A 14-year-old Chicago runaway stole a charter bus yesterday and drove down I-80. Drove erratically, of course, weaving in and out of lanes, dragging the bus's muffler, and then hitting a construction wall. The teen has been charged with possession of a stolen vehicle, and luckily no one was hurt. [AP]
