I live in one of the cities with the “best” public transport in the world. But it’s impossible for one of my friends to get to her night shift outside the city by public transport. It’s like a train for 40 minutes, and then an infrequent bus and then walking - all as a lone woman at night.
Or a 30 minute drive… in the safety of your own car.
I don’t see how public transport could ever be “improved” to solve that, it becomes increasingly expensive to cover every destination.
Nevermind the fact that most of the anti-car people are the same ones pushing for rehabilitative “justice”, defunding the police and weak sentencing - that’s not making walking at night and public transport any safer!
It’s not only the transportation means, it’s also the city design which is biased by the car culture. If your friend’s only reasonable solution is a 30-min driver, and she didn’t intentionally decide to live in some isolated place, then the city design is a failure.
