Since I live out in the country 9 miles from the nearest shopping, public transportation is usless to me. When I lived in NYC I never even learned how to drive; I went everywhere on the subways. A grid system works better than a hub with spokes. Free transfers from one bus or train to another are a big help. Clean and well maintained=important. Crime is an issue in inner city--needs to be addressedwhere needed. Handicapped access=important.
The question is not, Can they reason? nor, Can they talk? but, Can they suffer? ~Jeremy Bentham
