I am proud to advertise the fact that I drive a small, diesel-powered car. Two weeks ago, I drove from Grand Rapids, MI to Hamilton on 3/5 tank of gas (and I was even speeding!). Despite my relatively environmentally friendly vehicle–I still always feel guilty when I drive around below the mountain. The roads keep getting rougher and busier, and I’m a part of the problem. It’s easy to wish that someone would simply install light rail all over the place–but somewhat unrealistic. On the other hand, I can’t take the bus system b/c it would have taken over 10 hours to accomplish what I just covered in less than 2.
So–we’re back at square one again: what comes first, more public transit or more passengers?
