I'm sorry, but I fail to see how this will help me with the inconvenience
of public transit.  Besides, I am not too keen on motoring around on a
scooter or motocycle during rush hour surrounded by tons of steel (quite
often driven by people who tend to ignore anything smaller than a
Firefly or Sprint).
