      • Buses can’t be forced on everyone, for instance, I don’t really use public transport that much due to bad luck and getting some sort of weird af virus from others all the time. We also export a lot of cars here, which is one of our top exports. There could be a nice boat for Mtkvari, as well as more metro stations, so I agree that better public infrastructure and transportation are good.

        • It’s just silly… Your “argument” against using public transportation is absurd… Sorry, but your selfish desire for a private vehicle shouldn’t dictate how we build a society and a livable space. Ironically, we do, which is why we live in such unhealthy conditions.

          • Isn’t it better to have both options? People can choose between public transportation and cars, they aren’t the same price or as fast. Let’s not even talk about overcrowded public transportation during peak hours. Sometimes I take the bus or metro during “clean hours,” when there are barely any people on them. However, I don’t even consider them during busy hours because I can’t get a seat. For my own reasons, I want comfort and safety. I don’t really trust bus drivers or even minibus drivers much with my life. If you don’t care about comfort and safety, it’s fine.

  1. I see our city hall has the same idea and look at what they have “accomplished” so far. No matter how good the public transportation system is, you can’t make people give up the comfort of their own damn cars. There is no problem with cars. Not to mention dumbass government and Kaladze making dumb decisions, Tbilisi is pretty much the only place where people can have jobs, study, and live comfortably
