New Roosevelt Island Tram Cars Plagued by Bad Typography?

Behold, the new Roosevelt Island tram car! (Robots not included.) The tramtacular reveal of the prototype comes via Roosevelt Islander by way of a French newspaper, because as everyone knows, Frenchies' greatest interests are 1) cigarettes 2) Jerry Lewis and 3) Roosevelt Island. How are the locals reacting? Says one Roosevelt Islander reader, "Now we're going to have to live with a poorly-kerned version of Verdana flying over the East River for the next 30 years." At least it's not Comic Sans?
