Taking the bus turns a 15 minute drive into a two hour drive. Because I’m disabled y’all just assume my time is less valuable. Like I said, fuck all y’all that assume cars are the worst option for everyone
Taking the bus turns a 15 minute drive into a two hour drive
If you’re talking about your specific situation, sure that might be the case, but it shouldn’t be that way in general. I also avoid taking my local public transit because it’s so bad, with service that’s supposed to be every 15min often 25min late (I’ve personally waited over 40min). However, that’s only with bad service. In a lot of places with good public transit, transit is waaay faster than driving because (rightfully so) they give priority to buses holding 40+ people, instead of cars holding 1.4 people on average
We’re not blaming you if you currently take a car. I drove to the grocery store last night because that’s the only way to safely get there. It’s the system that’s the problem.
You also didn’t acknowledge the other mobility options available, do none of them apply to you?
Ah, I see. You are personally affected by the bad transport available at your location.
Well, good news, you’re already at the right place to complain about bad bus systems. This community is all about making that horrible 2h bus ride faster.
Once you look into the costs, benefits and disadvantages associated with different kinds of transportation you’ll notice that in order to speed up traffic we need to provide all those terrible car drivers (the other people on the road, not me or you), a viable alternative so that they may finally get out of the way. Some of the people I’ve met on today’s commute really should not be allowed to drive a car. But since you can’t lock people up for driving a car (thank god, because I need one) we really should entice all the incompetent ones to stop wasting everyones time by handling a vehicle on public roads.
