Step 7 - Get Off

MUNI

MUNI stops at all of the overground stops downtown no matter what. So you just need to get off. If people won't let you off, say "coming out" and they'll probably get out of your way. Most of the above ground MUNI stops are optional, so you're best off pulling the wire on the sides of the car before your stop to ensure that the driver stops. You have to press the bar on the side of the steps to get the door to open. Don't get off at the very front of the train, near the driver, unless you absolutely have to. It slows everyone down because people boarding have to wait for you to get off.

BART

BART stops at all stations no matter what. The only thing to note is that the train accelerates and deaccelerates fast so it's unusually hard to stay upright and make your way to the door.

If you have a bike or luggage, position yourself so that you let the item-less people out first. If you need to get your bearing when you get off, be sure to step away from the door immediately so that you don't block other people getting off the train.

If you rode BART, you'll have to put your ticket back into a turnstile on the way out to complete the paying process.

Follow the exit signs to find your way out. Remember to stand right, walk left on the escalator! People with bikes can't use the escalator; you must walk or use the elevator.
