How long would you wait for a bus, taxi, train, etc., before you decide to walk?

ks · 07-07-2002, 04:05 PM

Easy, I wouldn't wait at all because there are no buses, taxis, trains, etc around here. I don't think I'd hitch-hike either, unless it was to Alaska!

The only thing we have is a train and if I wanted to take that I'd want to take it it would probably be 40 minutes by foot. But it's really not that far but walking wise it is. I have been on it before with my family just for fun but it's a loooong ride and it takes people deeper in Sacramento so that's not good at all.

Most people around here drive, myself included. So as long as my car runs, I'll drive.

Kay Scarpetta · 07-07-2002, 10:11 PM

I'd just walk.

I've never really thought about it, lol. I don't take buses, trains, or taxis. My parents drive me everywhere lol and if they couldn't... then I guess I'd just walk.

InspectorExstead · 07-07-2002, 11:50 PM

a bus usually comes every like 10 minutes. it takes like 20 minutes to get to the nearest train station (by car) and the train only comes like four times a day. i can just call a taxi and they'll be by my front door in like 10 mins. but like dawsongirl already said, most ppl drive around here too. unless you're like a tourist or something.

Buses between my village and Helensburgh (where I work) go past every hour. I don't have the option to walk home cos my village is about 12 miles from Helensburgh so if I miss a bus I have to wait an hour for the next one. I guess a could get a taxi but the taxi's round here cost a fortune!!

As long as I have a tank full of gas, I'm happy. Of course the parents have to supply the gas. We have no busses or trains here. You either drive or walk. Pretty convenient for a desert, huh?

JDS84 · 07-08-2002, 02:19 PM

Well that's an easy question. I would have to walk. Because there are no buses, cabs, and trains. We are a very poor county.

TJL · 07-08-2002, 03:38 PM

I'm waiting for one right now...

What friggin time is it?

Warm & Fuzzy · 07-08-2002, 05:49 PM

Uuugh, sometime last week, I waited for the downtoen F train for 1/2 hour!

I think that's the longest I've ever waited for a train.

TJL · 07-08-2002, 06:59 PM

That's why they call it the "F" train...

Because it takes Forever to get there!!!

LOLOL! Actually, the "F" train is my favorite train.

It was the first one I took and is closest to my home.

It takes you to 34 St, Times Square, Brooklyn, etc.
