San Francisco's subway has a creative solution to stop its elevators from smelling like urine
Business Insider ^

The so-called "self flush and sanitizing system" is part of a $2 million effort to fight BART's stench problem. The agency also plans to tear up the floorboards of 80 elevators and replace them with a coated material that makes the elevators water-tight. While it may prevent urine from seeping into the machinery, it's unclear whether sealing the urine is the best solution for smell.
If the misting system at Civic Center works, BART wants to install it at other downtown San Francisco and Oakland locations. The work on the floors is expected to be complete in April.

Such a once proud city crumbling before our eyes all due to scumbag liberal hippies.

I know what you’re thinking.
I’m thinking it too.
The answer is so simple.
Why can’t leftists wrap their feeble brains around it?
Really!
You want to make the subways so they don’t stink of pee?
Stop allowing people to pee in them.
(you’re welcome)

Typical libtards, always treating the symptom, but never solving the problem. It’s intentional, for to admit to the problem destroys the entire premises of their Leftism. Why we get “ISIS is not Islamic” from the Knothead in Chief.

Hillary will provide for catheters for all the bums, plus a clinic for insertion aided by trained medical personnel. She has knowledge.

I vote for lethal high voltage, exposed wires on the floors. Special wire that would only carry a current if exposed to urine.
