From some of the thread's i've been reading, an overwhelming number of aspies seem to prefer taking public transit over driving. Anyway, my question here, is who does not? As much as I love it and see the benefits of it, the joke of a system here in atlanta that we call public transit makes me downright nervous. THe routes constantly change, its dirty, and it never seems to go where you need to go. Sorry, but I can't stand riding it. Whats everyone else's opinon on public transit in their cities vs a car?
I HATE THE BUS!! !! !! !! I REALLY REALLY HATE THE BUS!! !! I have ridden the bus exactly twice since 1984. "The year I got my liscence" I'll go without food to make sure I have some PRIVATE transpartation.
I can't stand running on other peoples scedules, or being dependent on others, and I'm a night person as well. That and I can't stand the idea of being locked in a box full of "often violent, occasionally infested" strangers. If I need to go downtown it would take me hours of planning ahead on the bus. With my car it takes me 15 minutes. I like to go out for coffee around 10 pm. Bus?? Hah.
Right now I have four vehicles, a pickup truck, my 74 Beetle, my Moped for getting aroud the neighborhood, and lastly my new home myWinnebago.
Bus?? I'd walk first!
