Bay Area

My experience in the East Bay over the last year has been that mass transit is so slow and expensive that usually it makes more sense to pay for a car ride. One common trip for me is $22 and 20 minutes by Uber vs. $8.50 and 80 minutes (four times as long, counting the busses to and from the train stations) by mass transit. I wonder if ride-hailing apps rather than covid are primarily responsible for the decline of BART.
