I'm not sure the issue is either. Yes, there are some bad actors that everyone would rather not travel with for various reasons (those who are aggressive/commit various crimes on public transport for example), but then there's a much larger group that each individual might not get along with or tolerate, and that's a large part of the reason private cars and Uber type services are preferred when available. People's preferences are different, and bus/train services are always going to be a compromise in that aspect.
- rdl 9y agoA fun experiment would be to take a bus line with 20 buses and rather than a uniform $2 fare, do identical buses with a each bus charging one of $0, $1, $5, $10, $50 fares. (Maybe also experiment with something other than just farebox fare — some buses are $50/mo unlimited rides, some are $50 for 10 prepaid rides, etc)
