I rode it for 4 years as I didn’t have a license to drive. It was slow, transfers were awful. That was in 1976 and in 1992. Today it takes me 25 min to drive 8 miles but if I take transit to my destination it takes 2.5 hours each way. No thank you.
I love transit in EU it’s quick, efficient and gets me to places in less than 20 min including two transfers.
Thank goodness the court stepped in and threw the employees under the bus. I hate when transportation goes on strike.
I come back to SF Bay Area and get transit envy. VTA has been worthless since 1974. Nothing has changed except the name.
