“15 minute drive” at rush hour. My man could walk.

We already know this. The point is to make it better, because good public transport is better for literally everyone. I live on the edge of town, and I’m 5 minutes from 7 bus stops for 5 different bus lines, and a train station. Most of those buses come every 10-15 minutes, and are up to 5 minutes late at rush hour. It is by far a better experience to take the bus than to drive for me.
I’m imagining more of a 15 minute drive down the interstate at 70mph. I am not going to walk or bike 15 miles to and from work, particularly in the rain/snow/heat.

Which would be about 5 minutes on a high-speed train.
Buses are great intracity.
