i agree transit is good if you live in vancouver/burnaby but it sucks during peak-hours such morning/rushhour/evenings or when people really need it.
alot of times buses are often late or so packed that they tend to skip certain stops
sometimes you show up 5-10 minutes early for a stop and there will be no bus and then 20-30 minutes later there would be 2 showing up at the same time
which fucks alot of people over.
i stay away from the 49 bus that shit is so bad.
the old electric trolley line system sucks and they need to have more 99-bline style buses if possible on certain routes but that would require new bus lanes.
wait until winter time to see how fucked up the system will get lol
in 2013 i will only take transit if i ever need to go downtown or plan on partying/drinking for the night. otherwise it would save me alot of time and bs by just driving
forgot to mention anyone in the vancouver area who takes transit regularly should look into getting a CAR2GO..
