Out of all the major cities in the United States, which one would you say has very unreliable transportation?

Question

Out of all the 50 States in the United States of America along with the District of Columbia, which major city in the United States would you say has a very unreliable public transportation available?

I would say that the city that has very unreliable public transportation is Detroit, Michigan because the bus system is not always on time and are not always on schedule.

Answer 1

I can not tell you exactly what state, but i can say this: In the deep south, if you dont have a car, you are not going anywhere. Also i would like to say, that alot of people that live in the south are poorer than ones from up north and out in the west, so people in the south that are poor, drive old cars that need alot of repair and most of the time these cars are not going anywhere. so to sum your question up, i would say the 13 southern states.

Answer 2

I would say San Francisco. Every time I rode the train I had to wait at least a half an hour. At the airport,powell street..etc..etc.. And to catch a train into San Francisco from Pleasanton I had to wait more than 45 min. Also, one night I rode the trolley down to Embarcadero and walked around until about 8:30 and there were no trolleys that would take me back. They were all stoped at the end. This was during the Holidays so maybe that had something to do with it, but im glad I don't live in SF and have to get somewhere fast.

Answer 3

I would make a case for Baltimore. The subway, light rail and commuter rail is fairly decent but the buses are atrocious. On some crosstown lines, 2 or 3 buses bunch together resulting in one overcrowded bus and 1 or 2 empty buses. The next bus doesn't arrive for another hour and that one is already overcrowded.

Plus, suburb to suburb travel on a bus is non-existent or takes too long.

Answer 4

Houston is the capital of NO public transit.You should see the little toy train they built that goes from the football stadium to the baseball stadium.It actually runs on city streets and is controlled by traffic lights at some intersections but not all,it's your job to guess which ones.If you want ot go from the northwest side to the airport on the north side,you have to go downtown to transfer buses.If you don't own a car in Houston,it's like being a parapalegic in the Andes Mountains.

Answer 5

Los Angeles

Answer 6

San Diego California has a horrible public transportations system it will take you 3 hours to get from one end of town to the next..I drive but I would take public transportation if it was better than what it is now..

Answer 7

Kansas City - the public transportation is all but non-existent.

Answer 8

Can i pick all of the above?
Its a shame we dont have better public transportation, such as subway systems in more cities.
