The last and only time I visited L.A. was more than 15 years ago, already then I was amazed at the lack of public transport. Was one of the only big US cities I visited on my trip where I really had to rely on my rental car, it was impossible getting anywhere with public transport.

You are telling me this has not improved whatsoever after all this time?

I would say it’s improved, but still not good. They’re ramping up frequency of service for some lines and adding new lines, but it’s been improvements by inches when we’re miles behind.

That said, the price is good ($1.75) and the accommodations for disabled riders blows anything else I’ve seen out of the water. I see a lot more people with mobility devices on Metro here than I have anywhere else I’ve lived.
