    Buses aren’t horrible.

    • they feel safer in terms of crime, which might not be an issue you deal with but for over half the population it matters
    • they can often go around problems. One bus on the same line up ahead has an issue that has no real impact on the bus you are on
    • lot easier for the disabled to go on and off compared to down into a subway
    • you have a small degree of privacy
    • Mechanical problems? Get off the bus. No biggy.

    I do understand, I was a subway guy for the longest time, my wife would take the bus every day and she converted me.
