"Everyone deserves to travel without fear and hatred," the Center for Urban Mobility announced and called on citizens to be alert for hate speech or obscene signs, equipment or vehicle damage and other acts of vandalism.

Passengers can scan the QR code with the mobile device camera and submit an electronic signal.
