Transportation? I need a good transportation. The motor scooters sold by the scooter store is probably too slow. The electric scooter won't work because I can't keep my balance. I need something that doesn't require a drivers license, doesn't require balance, and can go at least 10 M.P.H. Fastest transportation speed gets best answer. I want it to be an independent ride so I don't want any answers saying get some one to dr5ive me because I'd have to wait for them.

So what is a good idea to help improve the US and their public transports?

What can LA do to better its Public Transportation? All of us Los Angelians (or whatever we call ourselves) cry about how we have no public transportation, but in reality, what can be done. Los Angeles is built upon layers of clay in most of the city making it extremely difficult to create more subways. And besides the expense, it will take years to catch up to other urban powerhouses (Paris, London, New York). The bus system could be improved but honestly, if you live in LA and know the distances between things, taking the bus sucks. I want to hear some ideas. Better yet, what can we do.
