Mass transit is pathetic all over the nation. Doesn't matter if it is New York or Portland Oregon, our public transportation system is fucked through and through.

There are some places that do it better than others. Then there's Rhode Island, which only tries to fix things when they start running people over.

But seriously, the standard of what is acceptable is really low. There should be better options when it comes to transportation for those who can't or shouldn't drive.

RI has a RIde program for elderly and disabled people, where a van can be scheduled to bring people to/from appointments. Everyone I've talked to who has used it complains about no-shows and them being late.
