At this time, I like to go out using public transportation, especially trains. Do you know why? Because the schedule is on time, we can check the schedule on the internet and my home is not too far from the train station.
Trains is better than other public transportation for me because my home is out-site of city.
Trains in Jakarta, Bogor, Tangerang or Jabodetabek currently have very good service. Clean train carriages and safety are also guaranteed. The trains staffs also very helpfull to the passangers. I feel comfortable too after there are 2 special train cars for women which are located in front and behind of the train carriages.
The first time I went by trains at the 2000, that were really bad.
Going to drive a car is often traffic jammed and tired.
How about you? Do you like go out by car or public transportation?

In my part of the US, there is no public transportation. If a person doesn't own their own car/truck, then they have to ride a bike or walk unless they can get a friend to take them places. There aren't even taxis here. I live in a small city that is a long way from public transportation.

Yes, there are interior places here in our country too where there is no public transport available and people have to walk miles to have them. But things are changing here and in our village roads have been constructed and now public transport has started coming to the village.

I have no choice but to use public transit if my husband can't drive me. I don't have a license, and can't legally get one. So, public transit or my husband are my only options. I'm lucky to live in an urban area with many public transit options.

Yes in Delhi we have local trains we call them metro trains, they are very good as travelling in them saves time and money but the people who stay away from the metro station don't like them as they have to go through the bus or any other transport to reach the station.

@srirahayu68 There are lots of traffic jams during the peak hours here causing accidents and wasting time. I will prefer the local train if my office and home are situated nearby the metro station.
