I tend to doubt their methodology of surveying people who are <i>already</i> riding the buses.  I think many of those who claim they would drive or take public transportation would pretty quickly realize that both options pretty much suck for getting from SF to Menlo Park, Cupertino, or Mountain View. I&#x27;d guess that &quot;live closer to work&quot; would be the dominant option once people were exposed to the reality of their choices.
