Park-n-ride has great quality of life but costs a ton because you inevitably wind up paying the cost of driving, parking and public transit.

- HeyLaughingBoy 8y agoLike everything else, it depends. It would cost me approximately $23/day to drive to work accounting for gas + parking, even more if I wanted to pay to use the HOV lane. Instead I drive to a park and ride and take an express bus. The total estimated cost is around $6 including my gas costs.

If you're parking at work, it's your boss. If you're parking on the street, it's taxpayers at large. If you're parking in a park and ride, it's you. Park and rides are generally built in areas where the cost of parking is much lower then it is downtown, so the overall cost of a P&R + bus ticket will often be lower then driving and parking the whole way yourself.
- Can_Not 8y agoMaybe, but my feudal lord offers a discounted bulk public transit pass plus park-n-ride combo.
