I grew up with public transport and now drive the car daily. Car is so much more convenient.

I don't understand what's all the fuss is about. Like it's impossible to haul a lot of groceries in the bus and u have to wait in the cold for the bus to come. And sometimes there are a lot of people and u are like sardines there.

It has a bad reputation cause it isn't well funded, I do agree buses aren't perfect but in my city they come often enough and there is actually plenty of space to rest so it is not a traumatic experience

Besides the fact that underground trains take care of most transportation
