 You like public transport, fine. I don't. equally fine. The problem
occurs when public transport advocates assume that they occupy some
sort of moral high ground, that enables them to force people who
don't like public transport, to use it. Frankly, the more people who
use public transport the better. It frees the roads up for me.
