Airplanes are public transportation though
I mean ig but u know what I mean
trains, busses and shit
l
Are you going to ride the bus from NYC to L.A.?
nah but a high speed train
It would still take you 2-3 days, assuming normal operation with stops along the way. If the fastest train that exists on the planet right now ran from NYC to L.A. and was able to go from 0 to top speed instantly, and maintain that speed the entire trip, it would still take 10 hours to get there. Trains don't operate that way though, so realistically it's 3 days worth of travel. It's almost 3000 miles to cross the USA.
