Oh they've altered the timetable the 24X bus doesn't stop at that bus stop anymore and there's no 11.30 bus from Pontypridd if you can put up with buses not turning up or not stopping then yes they provide a useful service.

@senghenydd ooh yeah thats a good thing! green electric trains and buses are awesome
senghenydd · M
@popmol I have a number of road vehicles however I caught two buses yesterday I must say it was a very pleasant experience relaxing watching the other passengers and enjoying scenery outside the bus. Britain is going for green public transport in a big way, soon all public transport will be green.

@senghenydd thats awesome! it will be so much better for the environment!
I've used it several times, but no I don't like it. I bike a lot during the summer and on nice days.
Do you?

I use our local buses quite frequently but my choice is based more on the purpose of the journey than any particular like or dislike.
Very occasionally I travel by train but for long journeys I take very infrequently anyway. I could equally well drive and more often I do; but if staying in a particular area for a week or so will use the buses or trains there.

@popmol traffic

Yes. It's a comparatively trouble-free way of getting around, and with the old person's discount, it's not too expensive.
popmol · 26-30, M
@supersnipe aah yeah you get old person discount! how nice!

In general, yes. In NYC, the subway is often quicker than a car. In Paris, the subway system is spectacular, and free on days when the air quality goes below a threshold.

I haven`t been on public transit in years and if I did i`d need to start carrying a gallon of hand sanitizer.

@popmol I plan for it each month. They are times when I'm to tired to drive and I don't want to risk falling asleep at the wheel or something.
ArishMell · 70-79, M
@Cigarguy101 I used to work for a company in which some technical and sales staff occasionally had to travel abroad on its behalf. They were instructed to use airport taxis between home and airport rather than risk driving when tired and "jet-lagged".
It is actually an offence now in the UK (maybe other countries too) to drive while too tired to be safe. If you start feeling tired you are to find somewhere safe to park for a rest.

I can assure you public transportation is hella nicer than maneuvering your own boat in the mess that is Venice canals
