I'm curious though....

When you absolutely have to take PT, which method do you prefer?

Myself? My username should make it semi-transparent. :P
Though I also don't mind buses, if it's within a reasonable distance (having to sit on a bus for 2 hours just to go 3 cities isn't fun, people).

I have to say bus because it's just so simple, quick, and cheap. But I don't ride the busses all that often.

Train I guesssssss, just cause Caltrain is conveniently close to my house and VTA buses are smelly haha

Although I ride Transperth buses more than I do trains, I love trains (more than buses :P )

...One thing - the people aboard Transperth services in places like here, people are pretty cocky, rude, and just generally not the nicest of people to be around.

By the way, I wouldn't call a taxi public transport.

Train because it's a lot faster and isnt as bumpy as a bus and you can walk around if you want.

We don't have any public transportation in my area, so I have no clue. But I'd probably prefer taxi, there's no other people. Except the driver of course.

Bus because it's so simple. You just go to the bus stop and wait for the right bus.

I like trains but I'd rather get the bus because my mum pays for my bus pass so I don't have to pay, and because i've been getting them alone for seven years I feel a lot more confident on them than trains.

And yeah taxi's aren't public transport they're not controlled by the government or anything.

I selected bus because that's all we have. I wish we had trams or trains. I haven't caught a bus for about 3 months

Buses here are ok when they turn up on time ;) although the fares go up and up...

And I used to be obsessed with buses as a kid.
Honestly I could tell you in my city more or less where every bus goes. There is even a hidden referance to buses in my profile somewhere... Rather obvious but nobody has ever realised or asked :@

Bus for me, as it's the easiest way to travel round my parts..
