What i have noticed using private and public transport is that happiness may come in many ways and forms. There are little factors of happiness when it comes to certain forms of public transport. I mainly use buses and taxis. With regards to taxis, most of the time the drivers do not really care about the passengers, as long as they pay the required fare then all is fine. Half the time they place their passengers lives at risk with their driving methods and the condition of their vehicles. The problem is that if you dare complain, you will either get sworn at, told to get off or told why don't you get a car of your own. Happiness levels are at an all time low especially in winter when it comes to public transport. most of the vehicles do not have heat and people do not find the need to breath a bit of fresh air. Ironically even in summer, people do not open windows, which is ridiculous.
For most people, sometimes the only time they get to take a minute and sit for a while is when they are en route somewhere which gives them the opportunity to grab a bite to eat and then some. Now, having someone eating a pie or an ear of corn next to you in a crammed taxi is not the greatest thing ever as both these foods are quiet messy.
Although travelling is something that is quiet enjoyable when you are in an environment of comfort, it is not all terrible. Using safe transport, in a clean environment or in your private vehicle may make your trip a good one. But things that need to be avoided are burning buses.....
