  • because public transportation sucks in most of the US. I just did a very typical commute for my area in Detroit region. The commute from Grosse Pointe Woods to Warren, takes an hour and 35 minutes by public transport. In that time I would have to walk a mile and a half total. or, I can get a car and get there in 22 minutes.

    and now, because there is basically an expectation that everyone has a car, our communities are sprawled out over a very large distance. I could totally see how if you live in a city, you might need to ask this question, but if you lived in a suburb, it would be very obvious why public transportation isn’t popular everywhere.
