<p>I’m grateful that suburban Chicago even has its own bus system, but it’s nothing compared to the city’s.</p>
<p>Alas, my driver’s permit has expired, and I haven’t practised with a car since…hmmm, two years ago? I also can’t ride a bicycle. So I don’t have much of a choice.</p>
<p>A lot. Today was Spare the Air day and everyone got to ride the buses/ferries/subway for free.</p>
<p>I never used the city’s buses, because they’re not very reliable and I never knew the schedule for them. I just relied on friends with cars to take me round to anywhere I couldn’t walk. I use my college’s buses all the time though, especially when it’s really hot (to keep from walking to class and dying of heat exhaustion on the way).</p>
<p>Whenever my car is in the shop, because I travel alot.</p>
<p>Everyday. There’s no other(financially reasonable)way for me to get into the city. It takes an hour each way.</p>
<p>NYC Subway System…I love and hate it at the same time.</p>
<p>What’s a public transit?</p>
<p>Public transportation</p>
<p>City buses, trains and in some places the ferry,</p>
<p>I use the Balto -DC MARC train alot because the drive is too far…and I always use the subway in Washington</p>
<p>^ I was joking. I’ve lived in New York City most of my life.</p>
<p>Here in Lexington - public transportation means the carriage tours tourists take around town. The nearest mass transit system is over an hour’s drive away.</p>
<p>everyday here in NYC</p>
<p>We don’t have any form of public transit in my hometown</p>
<p>at school i use it everyday. when i am at home with family, i dont use it because we don’t have it.</p>
<p>Right now? Never. In college? Probably a lot, as I’m leaving my car at home.</p>
<p>We have a really crappy system. It’s designed for old people.</p>
<p>I’ve never used it.</p>
<p>At school we have two options: take the bus (free for undergrads) or buy a parking permit & try to find a parking spot. </p>
<p>The town bus system is designed & operated by the university (students are bus drivers). The different routes hit all the major apartment complexes and campus and are timed so that you’ll get to class on time & be able to catch the bus after class gets out. So, I used the buses every school day for the past 3 years.</p>
<p>students are bus drivers</p>
<p>hmmm…that might make me think twice about hopping on a bus! ;)</p>
<p>live in nyc so i use it plenty. at school public transit basically doesn’t exist…</p>
<p>i went to san antonio for a weekend about 6 years ago and used the bus a couple of times while i was down there. that is the only time i have ever used public transportation.</p>
