American urban planning!
When I moved to my city, the shitty car I owned immediately died. Luckily, I thought, the apartment we’d moved to had a bus stop right outside and there were bus stops right down the road from my job, and the city’s website even had a convenient little route planner!
4 hours. The trip that took 20 minutes by car would require 4 hours, with multiple changeovers, to do on the bus.
When Americans say “public transportation sucks,” it’s not because we just hate the concept of public transportation; it’s because in most places it exists here, it is deliberately underfunded, underserved, and poorly implemented.
