Nowadays, public transportation is in almost every large city. Do you ride it to get where you need to go, and how often? I have to take the El every day to get to school, and I find it to be very convenient.

The bus and MRT transport system in Singapore is very good (mainly because it's such a small country), and I use it whenever I need to go anywhere.

Yes, I'd be lost without it. I use the bus to get to the nearest shopping centres and streets, to my local pub, sometimes to and from school and next year, I'll have to take two buses to get to college.

I also use the train when I want to go shopping in Birmingham or London.

Err... no? :P I don't have public transportation. I think the only buses are the ones to and from the Depot, and the School buses. Neither of which I can get on at the moment. :P

I don't ride public transportation, but if I lived in London, I totally would. The Underground has got to be the best, most efficient transport system in the world, even with the 1984-esque Mind The Gap guy.


Do what you will; but I will hinder it if I may.

Yes. Buses and trains up these parts, trams/underground/whatever anywhere I go. or walk.


Only my mother drives, and she works away.

No, I don't. I walk or cycle every where, or if a rare situation where I can't walk/cycle, I get driven.

The Underground is vile and makes me feel claustraphobic and sick. ::shudders::

I take public transport when I have to.

You've got to be kidding me. It's extortion in it's vilest form! *shudder* I loathe the Underground.

I just took it a few hours ago. I take the school bus which I guess would be considering public transportation in a way. But I don't take it often. Therefore I said no.

I doubt if we even have public transportation. Besides the school buses. Which I haven't rode in almost a month.

I'm pretty spoiled, my parents (90% of the time my dad) drive me around. :P Then again, there aren't many places I have to go.

I'm quite willing to take public transportation though (and I've taken the bus a total of 2 times within the past year...in other words, within the past 15 years as well). They just aren't... O_o

i use the trains whenever i need to get into the city centre. i dont use birmingham busses tho, i've had some bad bus experiences.

i dont have a car so i'm reliant on public transport, taxis and my housemate if i need to go anywhere further than walking distance

when i'm at my parents i use busses tho :) there aren't train stations near us. but i have access to a car when i'm at home, so if i'm going anywhere other than the city centre i drive.

Urgh, I hate Birmingham buses. My friends got mugged on the 79. If I ever catch a bus into Brum, I sit on the bottom desk as close to the driver as possible.
