What is ZiiTrend?
Will you start taking public transit to work or school in Q3 2008?

With the radiculously high oil price, some of us might start considering taking public transit instead of driving to work.

No one knows if the oil price will continue to go up. What we know is that we are paying $4 per gallon right now.

Will you start taking public transit to work or school in the near future?

    I haven't taken public transit for more than 10 years. Probably because it is so much easier to drive a car. Since the gas price is crazy now, I might carpool more.

    Where's the "I am already taking public transport" option? Poll pre-supposes that everyone is driving.

      If you are already taking public transportation and plan to continue, I guess you can still pick "Yes, will take public transit". Because that outcome will stay true.

    I might carpool, but I won't go for the local buses. Just waste too much time waiting every morning.

    I would want to go public transit, but the service is just too, too inconvenient for me to make that switch.
