What do you like about riding the bus?

Be creative.....

Answer 1

Well... I'm a bus enthusiast - so I enjoy riding them whenever I get the chance!

Answer 2

I'm 20 and my parents don't own a car, so I've used public transportation all my life. I like it because it's a more environmentally friendly way of transport BUT I dislike crowded buses and buses that arrive late (both of which are unfortunately usual phenomenons in my country).

I find it really funny when people tell me: "What? No car? And how do you get around"? I've beeen hearing this since grade school.

P.S. Oh, and you get to see lots of different people. I love that!

Answer 3

Ridin' in a bus down the boulevard

And the place was pretty packed

Couldn't find a seat so I had to stand

With the perverts in the back

It was smellin' like a locker room

There was junk all over the floor

We're already packed in like sardines

But we're stoppin' to pick up more

Look out

Another one rides the bus

Another one rides the bus

And another comes on

And another comes on

Another one rides the bus

Hey

He's gonna sit by you

Another one rides the bus

There's a suitcase pokin' me in the ribs

There's an elbow in my ear

There's a smelly old bum standin' next to me

Hasn't showered in a year

Well, I think I'm missin' a contact lens

I think my wallet's gone

And I think this bus is stoppin' again

To let a couple more freaks get on

Look out

Another one rides the bus

Another one rides the bus

And another comes on

And another comes on

Another one rides the bus

Hey

He's gonna sit by you

Another one rides the bus

Yeah

Another one rides the bus

Another one rides the bus, ow

Another one rides the bus, hey, hey

Another one rides the bus, hey

The window doesn't open, and the fan is broke

And my face is turnin' blue

I haven't been in a crowd like this

Since I went to see The Who

Well, I should've got off a couple miles ago

But I couldn't get to the door

There isn't any room for me to breathe

Now we're gonna pick up more, yeah

Another one rides the bus

Another one rides the bus

Hey

He's gonna sit by you

Another one rides the bus

Huh?

Answer 4

I ride the bus because sometimes my car won't start and i severely dislike walking.

I am 17.

I most dislike the fact that there are only about 4 buses a day round where I live, and this generally results in me walking.

I like the fact that riding the bus means that I don't have to walk.

Answer 7

I'm in my 20s.  I ride on occasion, when I am going to certain places for which the bus is convenient.  The buses are not like luxury hotels or anything, but they are decent enough (probably cleaner than my car lol).  The best part is saving gas and money, and the worst is that it takes a bit longer if you don't time it right.

Answer 10

Not much room for creativity, just the facts; I'm 38, ride the bus to save money on fuel, avoid parking costs, & spend the travel time relaxing. That is the plus side. On the negative side; the travel time from point A to point B compared with driving myself is nothing short of staggering! For what would easily be a 30 minute drive in my car it takes me nearly 2 hours to reach my destination by bus! Everythig has it's pros and cons.

I'm 16.

i dislike taking my instruments on the bus 'cause they get knocked around. and some of the busdrivers are ...

I dislike people with LITTLE TO NO CONSIDERATION whatsoever. Also, if the seats are very hard, I will not pay my fare.

I like leather seats, and sitting in the back, where it's always spacious.

I live in Singapore BTW.

Answer 17

Because it's too far to walk or the weather is bad.

Almost 40.

People that smell like bodily functions and crackheads.

Not walking.

The bus is gross. Not only are you stuck in a small area with smelly noisy strangers but who knows who sat on the seat before you. ew.

Answer 19

I only ride the bus if my car is being serviced and I have no other way of getting to work.  

I am 30 years old.  

I dislike how long it takes to get to work by bus and how long I have to wait for it.
