When you travel through cities like Boston and New York City you realize that cars decrease your freedom. Car owners need to worry so much about their car, sit in traffic, slaves to the time of day and weather (snow). I don't understand it.
Part of the problem here is all the college students can't rent a car because they are not 25 yet. If more college students could ride out of the city on public transportation and rent a car for their weekend trip, it would probably help save a lot of space on the roads.
Does public transportation in suburbia have a reputation for being dirty in Canada too? It seems to be half our problem that the suburbanites have a bad image of people who ride buses and such.
