db0Americans Explain Why Public Transport Can't Work
TommySodaDon’t get me wrong, I like the idea of having a car and having the option to go anywhere I want whenever I want is awesome. At the same time I wish it wasn’t my only option. I live in a semi rural area and I literally can’t get anything I need as a person without driving. And even if I decided to walk I have to walk alongside a fucking highway with no sidewalk just to get there.
As someone who moved somewhere with public transit, it’s the best. I can walk to most stuff I need within my neighborhood within 20 minutes to an hour (ironically the hour is to the auto repair shop), or I can bike places, or take a bus or train to places that are outside that area. It means that I stop drinking on nights out because I don’t want to feel like shit in the morning instead of because I need to sober up to get home (and it means I can go home when I feel like it)
