My favourite ski mountain is 30+ from the interstate, and the exit is atleast another 20 from the nearest bus stop.
And no, living 20mi from a bus stop doesnât make it a crappy place. Not everyone wants to live in a city with terrible air and buildings the size of mountains.
thats just crappy planning from wherever you live. bermuda doesnât have this problem and it isa nice place to live
yes it does lol, makes it harder to get around, gotta keep the less fortunate in mind here, also It doensnt have to be a city to have good public transport. ski town have great public transit. collage towns have great public transit. bermuda has great public transit. not exclusive lol
This may be true, but buses are not the only type of mass transit that exists.
The train is almost always faster than the car in central Tokyo and anywhere in HK. The same cannot be said about buses, though.
Depending on the definition used, commercial aviation could also qualify as a form of public transportation.

Bus stops donât have to be in a middle of a nasty city lol. Itâs just like that here because suburbs and rural areas are built for cars.
Also, suburban America is filled with small cities that donât have enough money to run public transit systems. Some places like Japan have HUGE cities (in terms of area, not population) that have enough money to run public transportation without sacrificing other sectors.
So⌠public transit is doomed in the US, but that doesnât mean it sucks everywhere.

Aesthetics, overall comfort, the type of people in the bus and the ambience
European buses :
Asian buses :
Indian buses :
North American buses :
All bus stops in India are a maximum of 5minute walks away from the major complexes they serve (like schools, hospitals etc)
So does India. We have many small cities and towns that canât afford to run their own public transit.
To compensate for that, the state owned (not Central govt. owned but individual state owned like Maharashtra, Karnataka etc) Road Transport Corporationâs run bus services in those places.
Some cities who canât afford metro systems are getting theirs built by state owned (again, not Central govt. owned) Metro Rail Corporationâs.

Other than the Asian bus, the interiors that you picked all look the same.
Outsides look really similar too (obviously some differences but jot drastic in my opinion).
European and Indian buses have cushioned seats
American ones look like bare plastic
those differences are major in a way
Most American bus seats are cushioned. You seem to have picked the only plastic one.
Hardly in a major way. Other than the double decker buses, theyâre more similar than youâd like to admit.
Ah yes, very simillar
