The most asked question to any kid is what you want to be when you grow up. That question is often answered with being an astronaut, a doctor, or some sort of animal because of our imaginations when we were kids.

I took a slightly different approach and decided to evaluate Valley Metro’s bus system. I choose the public transportation because I use it on a regular basis and have become very familiar with the way operate and I had easy access to it.
