    I never feel like the first one, I only get annoyed when there are delays.

    Of course, nowadays I mostly wish I was biking instead, but the fact that I’m on transit generally means the weather is so shit I can’t stand the thought of a bike ride, or that I’m planning to drink enough that riding the bike home would be irresponsible.

      I use public transportation a lot and the ones I frequent are always late. So if anything, they’re always delayed.

        The line I frequent currently is plagued by delays, caused by chronic underinvestment in the rail network by governments for decades. Luckily, it’s usually not delayed at the times I use it.

        Anyway, biking is way faster when it’s an option for me - around 12 minutes versus usually 30 minutes with the train, for a 5 km trip. There’s a new metro line under construction where I live though, and this will probably improve trip times and on-time performance significantly.
