Do you enjoy riding on public transit during the late dark hours when it is quiet and nobody bothers you?

    I have never done that. We have crappy public transportation here.

    Here our public transit is satisfactory most of the time.

  • No, I ride public transit late in the evening out of necessity and not because I enjoy riding public transit during the late evening. 

    For years I worked a shift that ended at 11:00 p.m.  The train that I boarded near my workplace usually had about 20 or so riders.  As the 10-car train traveled towards my destination, more passengers boarded which resulted in many of the seats on the train being occupied.  Not much of a quiet environment with so many passengers on the train.

      It’s been over twenty-five years since I have ever ridden public transportation at night, but even back then, it was out of necessity. I never enjoyed too much about it.

    Boring eh? I always like to pass time reading those ad posters above the seating places.

      Who said boring? I certainly did not. There were many other negatives associated with it that boredom would have been  looked forward to.

    I just meant the ride was boring, why you said you didn't enjoy it.

      I understand your point; as I stated above, I am not referring to a boring ride in any way, shape or form.

    I do enjoy riding public transit during the late dark hours but not because it is quiet I enjoy it because that is when the crazies come out and they can be pretty entertaining. Cheers!

    I do not now, not have I ever ridden public transportation alone at night.  I fact, the last time I rode public transportation at all was when I came home from work on March 13, 2020.  Been working from home ever since.

    No, that's why I drive a convertible instead of that nightmare.

  • I'd probably be a bit afraid to do that, knowing the crime that sometimes occurs on public transportation. If I were with another person, I might be okay with it. I have certainly ridden public transportation at night in the past.
