I agree with you. One thing that I have a problem with making everyone move to public transit is my IBS. I loath driving the way it is because of that, but I can at least pull over to a McDonald's or a gas station. It would be horrific to have to hold it on even the cleanest, fastest bus.

I don't even drive non-family member to a local lunch because of my problem. So I really would be a shut in if I had to go places by bus.

On the plus side, there could be a new client for an eco-friendly home food delivery service if they moved to such a system.

If we're imagining clean, fast buses, I don't see why they shouldn't come equipped with toilets of at least McDonald's quality.
