I took 2 photos tonight, with my cell of course, to show how poor the stop is.
I come to it from this direction. You can see how little standing room there is and how the ground slopes as soon as the concrete ends. Also, in the distance you can see the flat area where the entrance to an apartment complex is.

UPDATE: Behind the next cut is the *good* bus stop where I wait in the morning on my way to work.
Not quite the death trap like the one above. There is a bench, but it is not *right* by the stop...it is a little further behind me from this shot. The car wash has an overhang which is helpful in bad weather...though if it is bad, I just call a cab...SOOO not worth crossing a busy highway with lots of water splashing everywhere.

Ill take pics of the one here, there are some crappy towns around here that i'd never wait for the bus at.
*hugs* take care!
Yes, they call it a bus stop.
