I notice the biggest gains tend to be where there is no stick... <ahem>

A lot of these are very nice. I even see a lot of them being introduced.

But some of this isn't going to work well when there isn't a good public transit system in place: I can take 30 mins to drive or take 2 hours ONE WAY on public transit to get to work. Hm, choices, choices...

There is a "last mile" on BOTH ends of transit.

These are great for highly dense urban areas. <waves from west coast U.S.>
