Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it’s actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that’s really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

Problem is that there’s no other alternative for most people. Unless you live in a city, public transportation isn’t a valid option.

Most people live in cities. And if 95% of the electorate can’t drive, you can bet alternatives will be prioritized.

Only 45% of people in the US have access to public transportation.

And just having access to some public transportation doesn’t mean you have useful access. Being able to access a bus stop doesn’t help if it won’t take you where you need to go, or if the time schedule isn’t acceptably close to your needed transportation times.
