Grateful I have a car

I ride the bus, and it is a billion times better than the train. No urine or weed smell. People are polite and normal instead of crazy drug addicts.

I would like to know what busses you are taking because while they are better than the el there is definitely still a lot urine and crazies.

100% becoming a big bus guy.

I have to say, I am impress how little wait time requires to take them. Usually between 3 to 8 minutes.

It’s annoying because there’s an EL stop on our corner. With an elevator. But I’ll get myself the few blocks away to take the bus even though it takes longer. The EL is only for a last minute emergency/running super late for an appointment. I’m not taking any chances these days.

More people die in car crashes than public transit or gun shots

Because public transit is safer than driving

Too dirty, dangerous and unreliable for me, but you enjoy yourself.

I’ll be too busy driving to the movies tonight, six flags tomorrow, AC on Sunday, New York on Wednesday and the Poconos next week to care too much about people’s downvotes who don’t leave their neighborhood.

You drive to New York? Are you insane? Is Six Flags even open yet?
Rahawk02 t1_jeezasq wrote
I drive lots of places, see lots of things , have friends all over the country sounds absolutely horrible to be stuck in your neighborhood 24/7 .
Six flags opens for the season tomorrow. I take my kid every week something you can’t do without a car.

I free to not sit in traffic. Free to fall asleep on Amtrak. Free to not have to drive everywhere for everything. Free to not have to worry about gas prices. Free to use my car only for enjoyment. But you do you.

I would never ever sleep on a public train, that’s a great way to wake up without your possessions. I’ll take chilling in my car with my heated leather seats , favorite songs playing, perfect temperature. A little traffic doesn’t scare me.

You do realize there are other ways to travel outside the city without a car right? Your half brag half shame stance is weird & boring look at me

NY is not that bad of a drive if you can afford parking and avoid certain times of day.
