San Diego has a pretty bad transit system, unless you live along the coast, or near downtown.

Normal Buses:

Hybrid bus:

We also have a trolley system:

And a train that runs along the coast:

And our Taxis (sorry, I know Stylizer ask for the buses, but I think that it's a great idea to show our cabs too):

The TTC (Toronto transit Commission) system is getting on in years now. It serves a lot of people and new infrastructure needs to be built, existing needs rehab/updating. more active measures need to be implemented to ease traffic, especially the Gardiner Expressway and the 401 - the busiest highway in North America. Its a good network though, i use it often.

Bus - this one is a new hybrid, there are tons of different models on the road though

Are all your taxi's the same? Here in SD (and I'm pretty sure most other North American cities) cab companies are all independent.. so there are Yellow cabs, which are all yellow etc... here in Sd there are about 30 different cab companies... the two most distinctive are Yellow and Orange, but there's like "don's cab company" which are whatever colour they want

Yup, all the Barcelona taxis looks the same. Generally, in Spain there's only one Taxi company per City, each one with different colors, and managed by the local transport administration.


And some other transports... (with small pictures this time to not overcrowd this page).

the Blue tram (another tram but very old and unique):

The Aerial tramway:

The bicycle system:

And the trains (we have a lot of different models, but those are the most common):

Hey, those train stations are similar to ours. Only difference is that, yours are more clean & there is no much crowd.

I travel on buses sometimes, but I hate waiting and I prefer driver my own car. When go to the city or airport, I need to catch buses, because the parking spaces are difficult & crowded.

I never ride the bus, cuz I can walk or ride my bike everywhere I want to. That's the nice thing about living in the suburbs.
