Not only the buses, Remington. Compared to subway and train systems around the world - or in San Fran - NYC's transportation systems are ancient, antiquated, and dangerous. Unless you ride the trains regularly, it's impossible to figure out schedules, tracks, and times. Anyone over the age of 45 is trampled in mad rushes to get to the just-posted train platform. Too few buses and trains with too complicated schedules for too many people.
