If we actually had decent public transit people would use it. As it is we have subways that go nowhere and not even many at that. We dont have very many commuter trains or lines. The bus service is ok but i find street cars to be chronically slow.
We need more frequent commuter trains, better night service and more subways if we are to get Torontonians out of their cars. And abolish streetcars because all they do is cause more traffic. Oh and how about an airport train link? Why are we the only major city in the world that doesnt have a transit link to it's airport?
World class indeed.
Also, coming out of the Leaf game for example youd be hard pressed to find a bus or train that would take you to where you want to go especially if its outside city limits. |
yeah i agree, transit here sucks, world class my ass..
although i use it, i find it so hard to make it aorund without changing from a bus and sub or streetcar!
they should build more lines |

when i was in india, they had no bus scedules, bcuz every 2 seconds there were 5 buses for 1 route. so once your at the bus stop, the bus is already there. lol. there is no timings for when it departs or arrives, they can leave whenever they want. |
B.E.S.T. is the largest bus fleet in the world.

no it's not just you. i stopped using Petro Can for that reason. I think it must be an additive or something in the gas that makes it burn way faster. |

I don't think the taxes are the ones to blame (ok I don't like them but...)
Oil companies are having record high margins... usually 4 to 6 cents a liter is a very good margin for them. Now they are making 17.4 cents!!! #&*%?%)#&%?#)% |

Stop bitching.
Gas is still cheaper than bottled water.
Get out of your SUV's and get on public transportation. Or simply trade it in for a more fuel efficient vehicle. |

Actually the PetroCan does use an additive. But the additive cleans your fuel system (injectors and ports) which just actualy makes your engine work closer to it's peak (which is good). The only reason you appear to use more gas is because your engine is working better (cleaner, etc) and providing you more power.
I try to stick w/ the Sunoco 94 since my car can't run on anything less than 91 - I figure the 94 is the way to go (plus the Sunoco is the lowest sulphur, however I don't like the fact Sunoco uses ethanol {give me pure gas please}). |

I'll stop bitching when my I4 focus SVT doesn't cost $40 to fill the tank.
We don't all drive 8 or 10 cylinder SUVs you know. |
