metrognome..
for some of us.. the distance we have to travel on foot to connect with the bus system and the time and energy required to navigate the route outweigh the cost even when we qualify for reduced fares… making the bus system a poor choice on bad days.
but even for those who are healthy… the current public transportation system can be an expensive choice.
while he worked downtown, hubby used the bus system for his commute. But then his job location changed and he faced a doubled distance.. with a tripled commute time.
By driving he has cut his old commute time in half.
If there was a viable option.. he would still be taking public transit.
We are lucky he has a choice. His day is long enough as it is.
