Mit dem Fahrrad in die U-Bahn

[BigDADDY]

Moin.
Wißt Ihr, ob es in den USA (in den Hauptmetropolen NY, SF, LA..) erlaubt ist, das Fahrrad in der U-Bahn mitzunehmen?
In den Berliner U-Bahnen ist es immerhin erlaubt, wenn auch teilweise Einschränkungen gelten.

In Sfo geht es:

BART's Bicycle Rules

• Bikes are allowed on all trains except those trains shown in highlighteds areas of the BART Fares and Schedules brochure. It is the rider's responsibility to refer to BART schedules.
• Regardless of any other rule, bikes are never allowed on crowded cars. Use your good judgment and only board cars that can comfortably accommodate you and your bicycle. Hold your bike while on the trains.
• Bikes are allowed in any car but the first car of a train.
• Bicyclists must use elevator or stairs, not escalators, and always walk bikes.
• Bicyclists must yield priority seating to seniors and people with disabilities, yield to other passengers, and not block aisles or doors or soil seats.

Das schreibt die Muni aus San Francisco dazu:

All newer diesel and trolley Muni buses have front-loading bike racks able to hold two bikes each. Historic Streetcars, Cable Cars, and Muni Metro Light Rail Vehicles do not have bike racks, nor do some older vehicles; you may not bring bicycles on board those vehicles.

Die Metro Light Rail Fahrzeuge sind auch die, die im oberen Tunnel unter der Market Street fahren. Also: keine Fahrräder in der MUNI U-Bahn, Straßenbahn oder Cable Car, aber in Bussen.
