IMHO, asking questions to people you have just met will make they fell uncomfortable. They don't know you yet and aren't interested in giving you details about themselves.
Asking questions or making remarks about easy, common and light subjects will make you start a conversation without going too deep too fast. That's why people talk about the weather, the transit, etc. It also helps if you observe the person a bit and ask about something that they clearly appreciate.
