My city has a fleet of vintage streetcars that it runs on standard routes (i.e., it’s not just a tourist novelty — and it’s the same cost as bus and other light rail).
It’s always a joy to ride those and read the history of the individual streetcar — they all wear fun livery.
How the hell you spell chauffeur?
B-U-S D-R-I-V-E-R
Riding the bus to work: “That’s 50 minutes of my life I won’t get back.”
Driving to work: “That’s 15 minutes of my life I won’t get back.”
Telecommuting: “I wonder if there’s another cinnamon roll.”
I like public transit - it’s a vital function in any urban area - but my FUCK can it be bungled to the point of near uselessness.
My city has a really bad reputation re: public transit, with many contributing causes. It’s actually almost as interesting as it is infuriating at times. Someone made a decent documentary I recommend to anyone in my city who has experienced our transit system:
Youtube- Dude, Where’s My Bus? A Look at Ottawa’s Messy Transit System
sorry don’t want to ride the crazy train. I will pay $$$ for my car.
