    For some USian cities the transit is managed so badly that this misconception is kinda true. Buses that arrive every 30mins or even every 60, and that get stuck in traffic because there are no dedicated bus lanes, are tough to schedule your trips around.

      Yeah, it feels deliberate though. Underfund and hobble public transportation until people are convinced that public transportation itself is the problem

        Absolutely, it's a common strategy for destroying public services. Make it shit, then point at it and say, "it's shit let's get rid of it."
