american public transit = busses dont run after 1:26pm, the last train is also the first train, there are no bike racks, and there are 4 parking spots.
Ugh, so true. Bus routes in my area are designed and timed for when traffic was likely 10-20℅ OK, let’s be generous and say “less than half” of what street traffic is currently. Buses will skip stops just to make the terminal time work. Gotta be somewhere on time? Good luck.
The metro is better, sure but just hope there’s no… Well, I don’t want to doxx myself, but suffice it to say it’s not perfect, either.
We have an express line that runs at least every 15 minutes from one side to the other, it’s awesome, I wouldn’t consider getting on another one of our buses though and it’s free for me.
Most of my anxiety on public transit comes from people and getting off at the right time. That anxiety is unrelated to whether it is at home or somewhere far away that I haven’t been yet.
When I’m going somewhere far away that I haven’t been yet I just know I won’t be home when my ticket says and I might need to hurry to get the connecting train. For short distances I walk or take a bike to avoid buses.

Do you not worry about a safe place to keep your bicycle when you get somewhere?

“The world would be perfect if everything you needed was within biking distance.”
We have this in the Netherlands but I still wouldn’t call it a perfect world, to be fair.
