Well I agree with all the comments posted so far and I remember a time back in high school when I needed to wait for my parents to pick me up. I hated it. The convenience of having your own car is simply that need. You can get in and go anywhere you want even if you are waiting in traffic. The problem with public transport is the sheer fact that you have to get into your car and drive to the air port of the train station. Pay to park then wait for the flight or train, even if people could drive onto a train there is still the disadvantage of the wait. If you could actually gather the data to prove to people that they sit in traffic for the same amount of time as they would have to wait for a train or a plane then you might be able to drive the popular opinion of the public transit system into the positive. However, you will have a hard time convincing people because they have the flexibility of driving whenever they want to it is possible that they do not sit in traffic consistently enough, they have a good day here and there. Where as with the public transit there is always a set amount of wait time, it will never go away. Does that make any sense?
