Does taxi count as "public transportation" in the traditional sense? LOL.
NO NO NO. The OP specifically said not to include taxi! Even places as small as Brunswick, GA are showing up on this thread because people are including "taxi" as public transportation.
"Public transport (also public transportation, public transit, or mass transit) is a shared passenger transportation service which is available for use by the general public, as distinct from modes such as Taxicab and car pooling which are not shared by strangers without private arrangement."
