Public transportation to work is MUCH better than driving. I have been riding the train for past year and a half and although my commute is technically longer, it feels much quicker and more comfortable.

I know Louisiana doesnt have a good public transportation system, but get it on the ballot, its worth it. No expensive insurance fees, no stress.

Louisiana has one of the oldest public transportation systems in the US.

Baton Rouge's new mayor is right on top of that.

I have an hour ride each way to work. I'd love to be able to hop on a train to make the trip instead of driving every day.

You saying bums sleeping in trains isn’t poor?

That’s where they go in SF when it’s hot out.

If your driving, your arse has to watch traffic two hours everyday.

If you had public transportation, you can shitpost on the OT

I wish I could take the DART in Dallas, but this is unfortunately true. Tons of poor and homeless and with all the damn crazies running around these days your confined in a small space. Somebody could pick off dozens in seconds so I'll just drive. It's cheaper and don't have to deal with traffic/parking with public transport.

I mean for you sure. For me my 20 minute commute would turn into:

20 minute walk to the bus stop
15 minute wait for the bus
45 minutes across town
Hitchhiking across the river

Then am I supposed to walk 50-100 miles a day to make sales calls?

You don't honestly consider the street car good public transportation, do you?

I have a co-worker who rides it every day to get to work. He's rarely on time because it is so unpredictable. Plus, if a driver has to shite, they literally hop off, leave the street car idle (blocking other cars), and go shite.

The street car is a novelty, not a viable option for public transportation.
