Never leave a citibike unattended, even when I dock my citibike and I get the green light I still shake it like crazy to ensure it’s locked in place and nobody can take it, people steal these bikes constantly

I would assume so, they’re everywhere and there’s nobody attending the docking stations. I’ve walked by countless docks and seen people jamming a screwdriver or something into them to break them free

That’s citibikes fault then , with all the money that they have you would think they would have a more robust system to prevent theft

It’s citibikes fault people go and break their docks to steal bikes? It’s not the bike thieves fault for you know breaking the law and stealing?

Of course, but you can’t control people’s behavior and it wouldn’t hurt to make it a little harder for these criminals to steal bikes.
