    Then you’d be riding with the sort that have to ride the bus. I personaly like not being stabbed or pissed on.

      The sort of people that ride the bus and train is most of the population in the EU and a lot of other countries.

      @Blamemeta
      As someone who uses the bus, I have to say I have never stabbed anyone or pissed on anyone on a bus (or off a bus for that matter) and I’ve never seen it occur. I have had friends and acquaintances killed and maimed in car accidents though.

      If you do it right, you share the bus with the sort that takes the bus because it’s more convenient than getting stuck in traffic and having to look for a parking spot

        On every country on the planet, only the poor take public transit. Do you see rich people anywhere take buses?

          I’m a software engineer and own a car. I take the bus downtown because I hate trying to find a parking spot and dealing with other drivers.

            I’m a doctor and I bike and take the bus. But neither of us really count as “the rich”, we’re still working class. Personally I see nothing about the rich to emulate, so I don’t really see the point.
