First, I would keep a car (or some kind of personal transportation) for those trips public transportation didn't serve - and for recreation. But, I would love to be able to use public transportation on a regular basis. The problem is, in this area, public transportation is so inefficient. I talked to one guy who tried it, and he said he gave it up because he had to spend 2 1/2 hrs. on the bus or trolley each way to get where he had to go. Here they spend 90% of the transprotation money on public transportation and 10% on roads & freeways. 98% of the people use the roads and freeways and 2% use public transportation.
