FOR
1. It is possible that the highway is sometimes quicker to get from A to B than changing trains seven times. But until all the one-way streets in B have been bypassed and a parking space has been cleared…
2 For a commute of 25 kilometers, buses and trains avoid 320 kg of CO2 emissions per person per year compared to cars. The Greta in us rejoices!
3. Reaching your destination in a climate-friendly way – and climate-safe to boot: While cyclists get their feet wet, the socks of the tram passengers stay dry despite the downpour.

Commuting time is quality time.
5. it is said to have ended before the wedding altar, which began with “Is this place still free?”.
AGAINST
1. morning grouches, sour grimaces, smartphone zombies, a cocktail of fart and cheap aftershave: the ghost train seems idyllic compared to the rush hour train.
2. in the evening, the last free seat is always where someone is eating dripping onion kebab.
3. the bus fare for fare evasion is amortized so quickly that the transport companies have driven more people into crime than Mexican drug cartels.
4. temperature control as a summertime sticking point: we either end up in a tropical house filled with every nuance of the smell of sweat – or in a rolling refrigerator with a guaranteed cold.
5 In winter, hordes of flu viruses celebrate their mega party between sniffling, sneezing passengers. Good health!
