They're using just as much fuel as they would when full of passengers. Plus, they're taking up the traffic space of 3 or 4 small cars, without providing the independence and ability to control your destination that a small car provides. Even a Scapegoat Utility Vehicle is a better deal than a bus.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00689711253288535044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7624287635517979427.post-81671210767353488892008-06-08T02:14:00.000-04:002008-06-08T02:14:00.000-04:00Not even the new buses that are supposed to be bet...Not even the new buses that are supposed to be better for the environment supposedly? Ya'know, the ones that are making the price of my disabled bus pass jump up more and more to pay for those new and supposedly better buses?Connor N.

That's all just bull that you've been fed by the anti-car lobbies in order to make you believe that anyone who owns a car is selfish, etc.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00689711253288535044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7624287635517979427.post-20341290059095360842008-06-07T22:17:00.000-04:002008-06-07T22:17:00.000-04:00That would actually help the cities if more people...That would actually help the cities if more people weren't allowed to own cars because they'd be forced to take the bus, helps keep the air cleaner with less pollution being spewed in the air, etc.<BR/><BR/>And for those of them who, for some reason, couldn't afford to take the bus then they've still got left foot and right foot so start walkin'.<BR/><BR/>Hey, if the bus or else walking is good enough for a cripple like me with a 30% to 40% functional heart, then it's damn well good enough for them.Connor N.
