It’s a misdemeanor to occupy more than one seat on the bus, or to interfere “in any way” with use of the service, or to hinder or prevent access to any transit property, including seats. (Also, it’s not permissible to bring a package on the bus that would take up a seat if doing so would displace passengers.) Not that I want to see anyone cited, of course, but no one is allowed to deny another person’s access to a seat. There’s no exception, so far as I can tell, in the Metro Code of Conduct for people who don’t feel safe having someone else in the adjacent seat.
