1.You have to be next to people who are doing all of things very loudly
2. It takes way longer than a car journey because you're still bound by traffic but you have to stop every 2 minutes for 2 guys in a wheelchair to have the lift slowly lowered down for them and a guy on a bike try to figure out how to put it in the rack and an old lady digging through her purse for exact change
3. It stopping every 2 minutes means it also creates traffic

A well designed road system will include bus bays in dense arterial roads so that the stopped bus does not impede the flow of traffic. Even with this aside, a bus will reduce traffic by more densely packing human beings onto the road than a personal vehicle will.

Lol it took Louisville 20 years to realize that they could have the bus system have stops every block instead of every quarter of a block . they'll never figure that out.

Sorry, Leavemywife, but this deserves to be more well-known and not left at the bottom of the last page. Skwirl is not exaggerating. This actually happened. Our current struggle with public transportation is literally because a big automotive company conspired to shut down public transit to sell more cars and we've never recovered.

I'm going to post this so the next page can see it, too. That's really hosed up, and I'm adding it to the list of reasons why I'm hoping to Christ this country can pull itself out of the toilet.

No it was great. I loved waiting 3 minutes for 4 people to get on before stopping again 200 feet later because one dude who was patiently watching the whole thing didn't want to walk that far.
