Might try looking into a Segway type thingy, there are some 'clones' on the market now. They claim 10-14mph on batteries. I have no idea if that is accurate. The cops here just started using them for what used to be called 'foot patrols'.
The only bus system in the area is OCTA. Go to www.octa.net and check the Trip Finder. Just enter your starting address and Cypress College as your destination. Then enter the time you wish to arrive. Two lines serve Cypress College...the 42, which goes along Lincoln, and the 21, which goes up and down Valley View (however, only once an hour and not on weekends or holidays). The 42 runs every 15 minutes for most of the day. You didn't say where in BP you are coming from.
Depends where. If you're working and living in the city itself, particularly in and around downtown, absolutely. It'd be far more convenient than a car. But as soon as you get out to the outskirts of Chicago, it gets a bit harder. The Metra trains are good, and reliable, but they only run on the hour (if that) and they're only good if they happen to go near where you happen to go.
For example, I used to work and live in the city and I took the elevated trains back and forth, and it was easy (even relaxing, because I could read on the way). But after a while I was living in the city and working in the far suburbs, and it was, unfortunately, faster to drive.
If you are staying in a downtown hotel for only a few days, I would recommend taking public transportation. There are plenty of shuttles from the airport - Grey line shuttles run every half hour from all the major hotels downtown. Most of the tourist sights are easily reached by walking, cab or the monorail. King county Metro buses are $1.25-1.50 depending on the time of day - And free in the downtown core of Seattle.
Now, if you are coming out here looking for a potential place to relocate to, or are staying outside of the downtown area; I would strongly recommend driving/renting a car. Because of the water and hills, riding the Metro bus to any of Seattle's neighborhoods can take a lot of time. Visit in April, the city is beautiful with the cherry blossom trees in bloom.
The first thing to know is that the Econo Lodge is no where near the Airtrain. Its located on Route 1, not in the Airport, the only transportation that you are going to find there are Airport shuttles and cabs, and a bus that you have to walk across a really busy intersection to, unless you rent a car.
Second of all, I've heard some really bad reviews about that hotel, are you sure you really want to stay there?
Third of all, in order to get to Six Flags(are you sure you want to go there, I've had some really bad experiences there), from there, you have to get yourself to Newark Penn Station by taking the 62 Newark Bus from the corner of Rt 1 and North Avenue to Newark Penn Station. At Newark Penn Station, take the 308 bus to Six Flags.
To get to Oak Tree Road by train, note this is NOT in Edison at all, its located in Iselin (I live on the other side of Iselin, and thats one our claim to fames), dont call it Edison. Take the 62 Newark bound bus to Newark Penn Station. Take the Trenton bound Northeast Corridor New Jersey Transit train to Metro Park. At Metro Park, you can actually walk it, its about 3/4 of a mile walk.
By bus: Depart : ADAMS AVE. NORTH AVE.(On 56 Winfield - exact fare), and get off at BROAD ST. JERSEY ST.
From there transfer to the BROAD ST. JERSEY ST.(On 62 Perth Amboy - exact fare) and get off at OAK TREE RD. MIDDLESEX AVE which is right there.
To get to the National Tennis Center, take the 62 Newark bus to Newark Penn Station. At Newark, take any New York Penn bound NJ Transit train to New York. Once you get to Penn Station you have two options, you can take the LIRR to the Shea Stadium station, which is the same stop as the National Tennis Center. Or you can take the 1,2, or 3 subway uptown one stop to the Port Authority and transfer to the 7 train, getting off at Wilets Point/Shea Stadium.
New York City buses and subways are $2.
Airtrain JFK cost $5.
PATH train is $1.75
New Jersey Transit one ride in 1-fare zone between Newark and Newark Airport is $1.35
Airtrain Newark $5.50 fee is cover by $15 one way ticket from New York Penn Station to EWR Station that purchase from window or ticket vending machine.

Unlimited Ride:
1-Day: $7.50
7-Day: $25
14-Day: $47
30-Day: $81
7-Day Express Bus Plus: $41.
From Terminal 4, Q3 connects to (F) at 179th St to Manhattan.
Q10 Local and Limited meets E and F at Kew Garden.
B15 takes you to 3 and L's New Lots Av Stations, and Hewes St J/M Station.
From Newark Airport to NY Penn Station:
From Terminal A, B, C, purchase $15 one way ticket to New York Penn Station at Ticket Vending Machine.
Then take AirTrain Newark to Newark Airport Station, then transfer to NJ Transit to New York Penn Station.
If you take cheaper option, make sure to get on Newark-bound #62/#67 for $1.35 to Newark Penn Station, then transfer to PATH train to World Trade Center or free transfer at Journal St to 33rd St train to Christopher, 9th, 14th, 23rd and 33rd Sts.
Plane is fastest.
The Air Car
At the moment we are working on the design of the car and exploring the possibilities concerning our first model, The Air Car Eureka 1.1, with an air compressed motor, either on a mono- or bi- energy system (compressed air combined with electricity).
Google it...quite interesting. Another air car backed by the large auto manufacturer TATA is also in the works. Could be something.
You could also take the jitney. The jitney is a mini-bus and costs very little. It stops at every casino though and at times is kind of scary.
Prior post is right.. If you can't afford the cab ($10 at most from Boardwalk), you shouldn't even go.
Take one of the tourist buses from Mexicali to Calexico or El Centro, both of which are on the California side of the boarder and then take Greyhound to San Diego. Your only other alternative would be to rent car on the US side and drive Interstate 8 to San Diego.
You need to first ask yourself who is paying for all of this? Is this a for profit service? Be sure you get a good business liability policy on you and your vehicles, and it may be too expensive for you, but good luck.
you can get a student pass from your school

I know that in transportation, when booked, there is an extra charge called 'Fuel Surcharge'. Now, I have only done river transportation, and the fuel surcharge was around 25%. Meaning, if I booked a ride for $500 plus 25% fuel, my total cost would be $625
I would agree with the above poster. Trains and the subway systems are awesome, safe and always on time. We visited a few months ago and were very impressed. At the ticket counter they will tell you in solid English where/how to get anywhere. Important tip: Before you go though, you should get the Japan Rail Pass for the time you are staying there. It allows you for unlimited travel on JR (major) trains for the time you are there. You must get it outside of Japan though. Check the site http://www.japanrailpass.net/ for all info. It can be expensive otherwise.
Load Factors on Airlines.
Fuel burn on anything using fuel.
Service Life on anything deployed.
Labor Cost
Welcome to the country of the worst public transport on earth! I flew into orlando before and had to pay over $200 for a shuttle to take me from the airport to st petersburg near tampa. U should rent a car, u'll have a far better time in Florida if u do. Do NOT rely on public transport there!
I will agree that on the surface it may seem silly, but the law is there for a very very good reason.
SAFETY
The crossing gates and protective devices are not foolproof, they are mechanical devices and can and do fail.
The only sure way to be absolutely postiively safe is to look, both ways every time.
Dont ever allow a mechanical device to tell you the coast is clear. do it yourself.
That is exactly what buses are required to do because crossing protection is NOT reliable enough.
P.S. love the avatar btw, Tolkein rules!!
No state has good public transportation; but many cities do.
My personal favorite city to visit is Chicago, Illinois. The list of things to do there is beyond count. You can buy transportation passes that will let you explore the city for one, two, three, and five days, with unlimited trips, using either their elevated train system and/or their bus system.
