    Just dodge the screaming homeless people, tweakers and the occasional pile of vomit.

    Transit quality is region dependent. If you’re not fortunate enough to live in an area where transit is well looked after it is not “categorically better.”

      This is true but it only shows that transit is seriously underfunded and treated as the bad step child in many areas, something which could theoretically be changed easily.

        You are absolutely correct there.

        I do my best to vote for better parties man, but I am out-numbered by the stupids who think the answer to fixing problems caused by conservative governments is to elect more conservatives.

        During a year where there was a transit stabbing every other week, our mayor took a trip on transit to “combat the perception that transit is unsafe.” She had a full police escort… They’re more concerned with optics than with actually solving problems.
