I’m not from here and I’m having a terrible time with traffic. It gets on my nerves. My roommates even tell me that I’m more relaxed now that I don’t drive as often.

I’m from Oakland, California. I moved here two years ago. Taking Metro helps me get to know the city and the communities much better. When you’re in the car, you’re more isolated.
