    There are areas that are not rural that need cars, because the public transit sucks.

    There’s no fast way to go to San Jose where my friend lives from Sunnyvale where I’m staying.

    Walking is 3 hours, but walking to a train stop and then walking from the train stop would be about 2 hours. Buses don’t connect well either, so it’s still like 2 hours after you do all the transfers.

    Or I could pay $17 for a Lyft and make it there in 20 minutes.

    Yes, public transit should be better in the suburbs, but you’re talking about a very large SF bay area that needs better connections from everywhere to everywhere

      The SF Bay area needs more funding for transportation, period. The roads seem to always be under construction and the traffic lights just spontaneously stop working sometimes.
