On any given bus or train, Rude Dude is never too far away. For Angelenos, at least, they now have Super Kind to save them.

The new superhero was unveiled last week as part of a new etiquette campaign by Metro Los Angeles. As the transit system continues its ambitious period of expansion, it’s an especially good time to show new riders how to avoid acting like a mannerless beast.
