>When Interstate 25 was constructed through Denver, highway engineers moved a river. It was the 1950s, and nothing was going to get in the way of building a national highway system. Colorado’s governor and other dignitaries, including the chief engineer of the state highway department, acknowledged the moment by posing for a photo standing on bulldozer tracks, next to the trench that would become Interstate 25.

I agree entirely. Anything I would want to do by car that would take ~15-30 minutes will take a minimum of an hour and a half or more on public transit. While I have to deal with the homeless and the tweakers that might stab me or just outright start smoking some fentanyl next to me on the train.

It is just not worth it. Even if it takes longer in a car for some things it is personally safer and more flexible. There have been two shootings/stabbings at RANDOM at bus stops in the Denver metro in the last 2 months. In the last ~5 months there has been 2 shootings and at least 2 stabbings (at least one fatal) on busses in the metro. No thanks.
