Dude, public transport can be terrifying, but it depends. I agree with all the other points. It can be scary being trapped in a moving box when someone starts getting hostile. That was experience on busses about 1/10 times? I'm not sure, but it did freak me out. Usually, the worst part was just getting talked at even though I was wearing headphones.
We definitely need more public transportation, though.
Jesus - where do you live that 1 out of every 10 times you take mass transit, it's a harrowing affair?
USA 💀
The thousands of times I've taken trains and subways in NYC, I've seen some weird people, but never any scary ones, and the ny subway seems to have the worst reputation too.
