    It would be nice to have adult only public transport. When I first had to regularly use public transport I thought the high schoolers were noisy shits. Jesus now I use a route that a mob of the younger ones use. The parents are there but they just watch the chaos.

    Grrrrrr, get off my lawn, and ferry.

      Public transport is one of the only ways teenagers (among many other vulnerable groups) can get some independence in a very car-centric society. You’d be fighting an uphill battle trying convince people to exclude kids from the public transport system.

      Some of our trains have quiet carriages, which are nice. I haven’t been on many but I haven’t seen them noisy either.
