I found this to be a great system for those who are not fortunate enough to have their own transportation. I was impressed with the possibilities I had of traveling from neighborhood to city, or from city to city for a great price and effectiveness. However, considering I am American and used to the convenience of my own car, I sometimes would be annoyed with the fact that I had to stcik to someone else's schedule. I feel that this is the problem with the US, we are just too wound up in our own lives and convenience that the public transportation system might not ever succeed here.
