If it is well managed and funded, public transport can be wonderful experience.
YOU may get used to it. I won't
I spent some time on public transit in the Washington DC area, Boston and Chicago. Hated every bit of it. I like the freedom of going places on my time...not the scheduled time of public transit. Sweaty stinky people were annoying, strangers talking to me that I didn't want to talk to were annoying, peoples kids that were screaming and crying were annoying...no thanks. Get in my own car, pick my own tunes and go.
