I was 'forced' to take public transportation to work after my car died on me. I didn't mind riding my city's underutilized buses, except for the time it took to get to where I was going. It turned a 20-minute commute into an hour and a half. After a week or so of that, I would have been willing to violate any government mandate, directive from God, or a promise to my future unborn children to get myself off that damn bus and back behind the wheel.

Thankfully it didn't come to that as I was able to purchase a solid used vehicle to replace my dead one. And now I'm laughing all the way to work as I rape the environment in my V8-powered SUV.
