That use case though, it reads like it only goes too transit not away from transit. So you get a lift to the light rail, get your groceries and get back to the same light rail station and then, ... well it seems you are on you own for getting back to where you started?

All sorts of buses are eager to give me a lift when I want to go to work at 1500 (3pm). Where are they at 0230 when I want to get back home? One-way options are not unusual when it comes to realworld transit systems.
