Do you commute by bus?
I haven't, but I've become much more interested in travel. I've been looking into the Megabus experience, for low cost tickets on buses that'll travel around more than 100 US cities. What do you think of that?
I have never heard of the Megabus. That sounds interesting. What cities are on the route?
My most-wanted visits on the route are Atlanta and Baltimore, for family visits. Do you think that more people should commute by bus whenever possible, in their normal days?
It would be great if more people commuted by bus. But in my city, the routes don't really go to the areas I want to go, so riding the bus is not convenient.
Oh, that's the problem that I have where I live--it's why I don't use the bus often. However, I'll be moving to Virginia soon, and they have a very robust busing system. Fairfax Connector, the local bus system there, has 89 routes, and transports 30,000 passengers daily. I hope to be one of them soon! I hope that your area gets a better bus system too.
That's interesting. I live in the SF Bay Area. I know people who commute to San Francisco ride all sorts of transportation, including the bus. I've ridden BART, which goes to quite a few cities around the bay.
That's very interesting! I feel the government should follow in the footsteps of Get On Board day and do much more to incentivize public transport. There's no reason not to. It should be incentivized as much as possible in society--there's the convenience, as well as the fact that every dollar invested in public transport generates 4 dollars in economic returns. 
I agree. I know some cities even provide free bus passes for seniors. I think this is true in Philadelphia. If I could ride for free or with a discounted price, I would try to ride the bus more often too.
That would be great! My parents would be able to get in on that. And I'm sure they're tired of having to drive as much as they do. I think that should be encouraged as much as possible. Apparently, they offer free busing to those 65 and up in England. That should be big in the states, too.
It definitely would encourage more people to get on the bus. This would cut down on car exhaust and would be a great help to the environment too. A win-win situation.
