"First, Public Transit in San Diego doesn't suck. It doesn't do anything more or less than NY's transit system. The problem with San Diego is the land-use designation that it serves. How can anyone provide accessible transit in county that prides itself on suburban sprawl. "
sorry i total disagree you can go an where in the 5 boroughs of new york and be with in blocks of public transportation maybe if you look at at a nyc transit (bus and train) map this would change your opinion on san diego transit system which only has trasportation in the major work ,housing zones.
in very simple terms.
YOU DONT NEED A CAR IN NYC! In san diego you really do. oh how do you feel when a bum who is crazy,smells and talk to him or her self comes and sit right next to you.i will tell you what when my car broke down and i had to use sd transportation i was like, thank god i dont have to do this everyday. granted i used nyc trains and buses for about 20 years so i know public transportation SUCKS.
