And there is always at least one moron they quote as saying that they will stop riding transit and start driving their car to work. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. A 25 cent fare hike is worth paying over $3 a gallon for gas and $20 for parking and the aggrivation (sic) of traffic? Not to mention the cost of the wear and tear on the car.I disagree that traffic is aggravating. For one thing, perhaps this person doesn't work in Manhattan. Thus by driving he could save time and do so more comfortably but doesn't want to expend the cost. Perhaps the cost difference (including the "price" of convenience) is 25¢ so now it is better to drive. Personally I don't see how 25¢ can make a difference so if I were riding the subway before a hike, I'd continue riding after as well. So yes, that one guy who says he's going to drive is a moron. If driving were better he'd be doing it already. |
