Elon Musk is right that public transit sucks, not sure why he got vilified for that. It's also tremendously economically useful. Things can be bad experientially but still useful to society

Elon is wrong about why public transit sucks tho...it's not that the guy next to you might be a murderer, but that everything is poorly maintained, unreliable, dirty, etc...the people who DO make it miserable do so because they smell bad or talk loudly, not bc they might kill u

SF transit is ok by American standards but not much compared to Japan or (I assume, since I have no experience with it) Germany
