Public transit is great if you like
1. being harassed by drug addicts when you have to take the bus downtown which takes you through the "bad" part of town
2. being stared at very intently by drunk creepy old men
3. sitting next to people who smell like they haven't showered in days
4. being groped by the man standing next to you in a crowded bus because he thinks he's clever and can get away with it
5. waiting for the bus in the winter, which is inevitably late but you show up to the stop on time just in case it's not, and by the time you get on the bus you're a human popsicle
6. strangers harassing you at the terminal for change so they can pay the fare
7. avoiding puddles that form from coffee cups that are discarded on the floor of the bus (seriously WTF people, there's a garbage bag at the front of the bus!)

I am not fond of the transit in my town. However, I am glad that the buses run fairly often (every 10 minutes during peak hours) as I can't afford a car so I can generally get around town quickly. I just don't like putting up with all the creeps, especially when I'm getting home late 'cause they show up more often in the evening.
