Preferred mode of transportation.

I don't see the point of owning a car when you live in the middle of the city,

Thats the sad thing about living where I do, public transportation just plain sucks. The busses are so few and far between you had better plan on getting some where 45 minutes early or 2 hours late and that is if you are lucky to get on a buss that isn't already full.

As for me I prefer driving a car, it is relaxing when not in the city and I can just take control of the road and drive not having to fixate on anything besides my self and the road.

I liked it when I had a motor cycle (street and dirt). It was nice to just get out and take in the sceneory.

Having the ability to stop and park almost anywhere is nice. Public transportation just doesn't have that ability. They would just as soon have you pee your pants then to stop and take a minute in emergencies.

Yeah, that's a downside here too. London Transport isn't that bad compared to other places, but there are loads of problems with it. Trying to get on a bus between 7am-9am and 4pm-6pm sucks big time. Not only are you left waiting for 10mins, but when the bus does come, there's a high chance it'll be too crowded for the driver to let anyone else on.

I'd love to own a motorcycle. Something like this. Just the thought of me being on a bike gives my mum and nan a heart attack.

I'm open to get a car one day for the reasons Pete mentioned, but... I think I'm more of a passenger type. I like to concentrate on the music being played in a car, with the windows down and checking out the scenery whizzing past me. I don't get how I'd be able to do that on a bike, but... yeah. >>;

A car will also come in handy for kids/holidays/days out with mates... bleeh. Something to think about I guess.

Well i would prefer a crotch rocket, but my means of transportation is a car right now. i live outside of the Houston city limits so we have no bus transportation. Walking would be good exercise but getting up 3 to 4 hours earlier to walk to school would get old!
