That is dumb, in the US, school buses exist even in the suburbs. You most likely already fun them with taxpayer money for public school. I have even taken school buses for private school.
- bpodgursky 4y agoMany urban areas do not have school busses. I'm not making up anecdotes, here's a recent one from SF: https://abc7news.com/sfmta-parking-tickets-near-chase-center-mission-bay-sf-san-francisco/11547434/ https://abc7news.com/sfmta-parking-tickets-near-chase-center... Does it sound like she just needs someone to tell her why public transit is great? Or like she has actual challenges using public transit that you don't understand.
- spicymaki 4y agoPoint taken. Where I grew-up they had school busses up to middle school. Then you needed to take public buses. They then gave us a special pass that allowed us to travel during school hours for free. I am not sure that public transit is the problem per-se here, but really the city infrastructure.
