Gee, that was genius!

New York City subway motorman Terrell Harris is in trouble with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority after letting his girlfriend take a train for a joyride on Aug. 13.

According to NBC New York, the couple posted photos to social media showing them in the cab, with her operating the controls through several stops.

Interim NYC Transit President Craig Cipriano called the incident an "egregious violation of public trust. Something that I haven't seen in my 32 years here."

Harris has been "taken out of service." [NBC New York, 8/16/2021]
