Transit bus

like this," I would be perfectly safe. In the 7th grade, I had to take the bus that dropped me off quite a ways away from my house, meaning that I had to walk quite the distance to my house. It wasn't a major problem, just a minor inconvenience at best. The main reason I took this specific route was to save some minutes sleeping in the early mornings, but I digress. So around 3 weeks pass since I first started taking the bus and nothing really major happens. The only think really worth knowing…

One week. Seven days. Six nights. One hundred sixty-eight hours. This was the amount of time I was supposed to spend in the middle of the dense forestry of Algonquin Park, with only a map, a compass, and nine other girls. As I rode the bus to the drop off point, I felt none of the excitement and giddiness everyone else seemed to be feeling. I had no desire to sing songs or play the alphabet game. The only thought occupying my distressed brain was the absolute terror that I had grown accustomed…

Figure 3. Unlinked public transit trips by urbanized area in 2013, National Transit Database. New York’s public transportation system considerably impacts the geography of the City. Due to the people-driven nature of mass transit use, areas with developed transportation systems often facilitate more compact infrastructural projects to conserve and maximize space. Public transportation directly drives this high-density land development, and effectively reduces the distance people need to travel…

doubtful, the price was low, about $100.00 per night, which ultimately was the deciding factor to stay there. On top of all that it was not in central London. For a first time traveler abroad this was worrisome, as I had no idea how to operate the bus system, nor was I sure I wanted to. Despite any preconceived notion I had regarding this hotel, the price combined with the surprisingly high ratings led to the booking of a weeklong stay. After having completed this stay, it remains one of the…

ranging from taxis to buses. However, every single type of transportation is crowded and messy. For example, if you have to be at your job by 7 am, you’d have to wake up, at the latest, by 5. Then you’d have to be outside, in the cold, waiting for the bus to come pick you up. In spite of being the first one there waiting for…

The waiter brings his drink and he asks when the arrival of the next bus is and the camera pans right to the sign and back to table. “Twenty minutes” the men say. Jed then asks the bartender to place a collect call to a hotel under his name, he then proceeds to rant about how his mechanic who is also his brother in law screwed…

The defense asked was the plaintiff was speeding past the bus or did the plaintiff slowed down when he saw the bus stop. The witness then stated the plaintiff was going the speed limit. The defense finished their questions and the judge had called a short recess. The plaintiff and the lawyers had went outside to talk and I figure to…

front of a train station with the following sentence underneath the cars, “Unlike public transit, it has a media hub, top safety ratings, and room to actually exhale.” Located at the bottom one-third of the full page ad are statements from Subaru about the vehicle. All of the statements are in a white font with a blue background. The statement at the top of this section reads, “While you’re sitting on public transit, just imagine your commute in a new Subaru Impreza. No weird smells, no…

but to troubling myself. As a result of my own deed, I had to walk to the nearest bus stop every morning to catch the school bus, until Miss Rina returning my bike. When? I have no clue… Walking lazily that morning, as usual, I was late again. Therefore, I needed to wait for a public bus or a taxi. 15 minutes waiting, not a single bus pass by, not even a taxi. I was the only one standing there waiting for the bus I missed for my unpunctuality. At eight, which means in twenty minutes, I need to…

When Claudette Coulman and Rosa Parks wouldn 't give up their seats to white men it became the start of a revolution, the Civil Rights Movement. Claudette was too young to be the face of the boycott, she was also pregnant with a married mans child. She was in no place to be the face of the boycott and would not have been able to take the criticism from the press on her. Rosa Parks on the other hand was older and had to look to be the face of the boycott. The old seamstress who was tired after a…
