Try reading my post again. I was not talking about your traditonal mass transit.
There is the very thing in development. An INDIVIDUAL vehicle comes to you, then
utilizes the benefits of group caravan travel, then breaks away and takes you
WHERE you wanted to go, WHEN you wanted to go there, with WHOM you wanted go go,
and with no mass transit hassles you fear. The upside is you don't have own or
maintain the vehicle. I see nothing stopping it from taking you to even remote
places. Let's think outside the box here. Besides, this is only one of many
possible future transportation methods. It even leaves open the possibility for
you rugged individualists to still own your own vehicles. It's not even my idea,
just one I'm aware of.
