or we can be like the Japanese..... where the cell phone usage is prohibited inside the train.... i swear i have never experienced such well-mannered people there.... feet are always tucked so the walkway are for people....

the demographics is a huge difference for the people that take public transit in Vancouver compare to metropolis cities like HK, Tokyo, NYC....
the biggest advantage of mass transit rail is to reduce the time of travel compare to using a car. this does not happen in vancouver, traffic is minimal compare to those places and parking is widely available anywhere.
I second Hyde at this point.
Driving in Van is relatively cheap compare to HK, Tokyo and NYC.
If you can't afford a car in Van, I doubt you can afford a car in HK, Tokyo and NYC.
I never took skytrain cuz I'm living in Richmond.
I don't want skytrain come to Richmond since it will bring lots of crimes!
Sky Train is for the bum! so true!
However, some bums still drive in Van!
look like driving or not matters only with $$$... some of loyaukees just forget other factors what may make ppl drive / not drive, take skytrain / no take....
if u live near a skytrain station, & u work in downtown daily (near skytrain station as well)... I doubt why ppl still want to drive to downtown everyday even they got their own cars sitting in the garage.... for the traffic jam (time u spend on traffic jam in rush hour in downtown is no kidding business)???? or for the costly & not-so-safe parking spot? or some other reasons???
just "oh b/c they can't afford driving so they have no choice but to take skytrain"
