Ah, I wouldn’t have called that comfort, more boredom. I still don’t agree on the comfort thing, but at least I can see where you’re coming from.
I’m tall and overweight. Even when I wasn’t overweight the seats have never been wide enough and I almost always have my knees pressed into the back of the seat in front of me. With the seat being too short as well, I usually end up with a fair bit of pain unless I can stand or get a seat without someone close in front of me.
It’s not really boredom, you have that time left to sleep, draw, read, or enjoy the scenery. All the more worth it for public transit.
It also takes cars off the road, meaning fewer and shorter traffic jams. Win in my book.
The seating is more of an issue with cars, I’ve felt. It’s always cramped and big cars are uncomfortable and unsafe. Hassle to park as well, and they end up costing you way more than it’s worth.
Yeah, for me the real status symbol is a bicycle and healthy legs. Or a good public transit card.
easy, i don’t have to focus on the street for 50 minutes. that’s a big win for me.
