Transit has and will always be trash in this city. I used to live in the southwest, where you only have a couple choices of buses, most of which come at some of the worst times.
I remember taking the #20 home from 17th ave and waiting over an hour and a half sometimes for it to come if it was after 9pm.
Not to mention I had just spend half an hour walking up 17th ave because the #6 bus only came by like once every 30 mins - an hour. So I'd miss it anyways.
This isn't a transit city, and the ****s over at the insurance companies know it, which thank god for new insurance rates, otherwise we'd be forking out even more.
My Roomate just got a car, he is 22, before the insurance changes he would have been paying 4000$+ dollars a year to get a 1000$ car insured.
