The bus system runs really well here and you never have to wait for a bus for more than like 10 minutes between ~8:00 to 18:00. After that there are fewer buses so you gotta wait longer if you miss one but they're still going all night so it's not the end of the world. I don't know how it looks in other places right now in Sweden but where I live they have also started to put on pure bike lanes all over the place so it's even easier to just take your bike nowadays as well. Idk, the whole drivers license, getting a car and everything that comes with owning a car is so freaking expensive here imo. It would probably be a nice freedom to be able to drive anywhere but seeing the money you can save and the fact that Scandinavian cities are so tiny that you can bike easily to your location or at least have solid public transport as a backup makes me putting it off. | ||

The auto makes lobbied heavily to get the federal and local governments to invest more in roads over public transportation. There is no conspiracy, they just wanted people to drive more cars and roads were the way they got that done. Most of the public transportation systems for major cities are subsidized by the federal government. Its why our highway system is so robust too. | ||

I used to attend uWaterloo and came back to Queen's, and Kingston's slowly getting better public transit. It's still absolutely atrocious, but it's tolerable now. | ||
