I live in San Francisco. Public transport is a joke. Buses are so dangerous that I won't take them (took them twice when I moved here and almost got beaten up the first time, witnessed someone getting mugged the second time (near tartine)).

I went from exclusively using public transport (previously living in UK/France) to exclusively taking uber/lyft. Thanks humanity my work provides shuttle to do the commute to south bay, I would never be able to do that with the caltrain. Mad respect to those who have to do it.

You can probably tell I'm salty about the state of things here. As a matter of fact I just passed my driving writting exam today because for the first time of my life I feel like I need a car.

I feel just as safe on Muni as I have on the handful of other American transit systems I've lived near. Feel free to read that either way :)
