opinion: Those without a license should consider public transportation
Several months ago my driver's license was suspended and I was compelled to find another way of getting around. Someone told me that I could get a Senior Citizens permit for riding the busses of the Ann Arbor Transit System.
I then discovered that I could get almost anywhere in the county without any charge whatsoever. Moreover, I have been amazed at how efficiently everything is done. The busses are almost always on time and they are clean and comfortable. The drivers are totally skillful and always accommodating.
I have nothing but praise for the transit system and I recommend it to anyone who hasn't given it a try. Ann Arbor and the surrounding area is fortunate to have such a wonderful transportation organization.
I have my license and car again, but I am keeping my schedules and will continue to ride the busses from time to time. I save money that way.
