    Additionally, it is likely carrying a percentage of passengers in cars that can’t be served by mass transit.

    Our mass transit system sucks. The park and rides aren’t too bad, they’re cheap, and they’re pretty safe, but it’s still a mess. They’re never on time, they run in half hour or hour increments depending on the route, and to get anywhere you have to repeatedly change buses and then walk half an hour. The routes in Spring (northern suburb) are a joke. It’s difficult to even walk to them.

    I’m not trying to invalidate your point and I’m not here to speak to the rest of your post. I just like to bitch about our mass transit system.

      Your points are very valid. I’d much prefer a stronger mass transit systems. Some cities are better than others. Others, like mine, have no light rail/metro rail at all, and I think that’s insane.
