I live in an area that also has decent bus coverage with stops all over, although I've never actually taken the bus. I can't take the bus to work because there aren't stops where I need to go. I also attend school 19 miles away, and depending on traffic it's anywhere from a 30-45 minute drive. Last year my car broke down and I looked into taking the bus to school for the few weeks I would be carless. It would have been a 5 1/2 hour trip each way, I would have had to take 3 or 4 buses, transfer between 2 different companies, and I would have had to walk several miles in between stops to get from the first bus company's stop to the second's. Realistically, I couldn't have even left on time to make it to class or gotten back home while the buses were still running, even if I wanted to waste my life riding buses. I worked an extra 100 hours of OT that month to pay for my rental car.
