minus-squarejtrek@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·2 days agoI’ve lived here for most of my adult life and never felt like I needed a car. Having one is a huge pain. Parking. Insurance. Gas. Maintenance. Getting home when you’re drunk. It’s easier to just get on the train. I’d like if transit was cheaper and more reliable outside the city. Visiting family in the suburbs via transit is slower and more expensive.
