Good one!

I've always said that public transit needs to be sold in a positive manner. Someone posted a while back that if you put a garbage can in the street and ask people to deposit their bottles, it fills up twice as fast if the container had lights and sound for positive reinforcement.

Today's buses should offer more for their passengers like free wifi, discount coupons, free transfers on weekends, gas coupons if you buy a monthly bus pass. There's just no imagination to make it a better experience.
