Per high gas prices, do you use alternative public transportation?

Answer 1

I look forward to gas prices being high enough to make public transportation necessary, so that municipalities and urban planners will think with their brains, not their fuel tanks.

Answer 2

I would if it was offered where I live. I don't need to use public transportation, I am a stay at home Mom for right now. But I do walk to as many places as I can. I live in Michigan where they don't have much public trasnsportation. I find it discouraging for the majority of the public who have to drive. I've lived in New Jersey and Atlanta. In NJ the majority of the people used public transportation and Atlanta they tried to.
So now, I walk as much as I can!!

Your idea seems good on the exterior yet once you seem at each and every thing you take advantage of from apples to toothpaste to t-shirts you gained't hit upon a unmarried merchandise that gas has not touched indirectly. And even as gas receives expensive each and every thing else will keep on with adventure.

good question

everybody pisses and moans about high gas prices yet they aren't slowing down at the pump, much less getting rid of their 8-cylinder gas hogs that lead our troops into peril over seas

i live in redneckville usa, and you get all these hicks talking trash about the gas prices and corporate oil, but then they like who they voted for and go home in their lifted 4X4 super swamper 6 mpg greed-mobiles and i say to myself...what's goin on...ooooh...what's goin on...seriously can anybody answer that question?

There is no alternative where i live.

Answer 10

No because I work in a different state from where I live.
