How to take a bus in America?

Now that we have introduced the transportation of popular tourist cities in the United States, the following small series will tell you about the larger transportation, so that you can better understand the transportation in the United States. Let's take a look at the relevant information about this scenic spot with the small series. Local public transportation

1. The buses in the United States are basically Kneeling

buses, which can adjust the height between the lift door and the platform. This is very friendly to the elderly and the disabled. The buses in Los Angeles can also open the folding baffle, which can fill the gap between the door and the platform, and it is also convenient for some wheelchair users. In the bus, wheelchair parking areas will be specially prepared.

2. Before getting off the bus in the United States, you need to press the red get-off button on the armrest of the column, or you can choose to pull the yellow rope on the window or touch the yellow bar by the window. After the general button or pull the rope, the broadcast will prompt the driver that someone asks to stop. At this time, the driver will stop at the front platform. If there is no parking request, the driver will jump directly to the station. Under normal circumstances, the bus door opens automatically. If the bus doesn't open for a long time, you can try to push the yellow area on the door, and the basic navigation can be done.

3. You can't eat in buses and subways in the United States. This is the basic riding etiquette. Everyone should know that American passengers usually say Thank

You to the driver when they get off the bus. This habit is not bad. You can do as the Romans do and thank the driver. Train

Actually, the train price in the United States is really high. It costs 1 dollars to take Amtrak from Washington, D.C. to new york. It is better to take economical intercity transportation by yourself. I will introduce it to you later in Xiaobian. Now let's talk about Amtrak. If you are going to take Amtrak, you can book tickets directly at Amtrak. This website also supports Chinese, and the driving speed here is really not fast. For the related strategy of taking the train in the United States, the travel website also has detailed instructions. You can search it.

Let's talk about the train. There is a Caltrain experience class in the Bay Area of California. It takes only about half an hour to travel from Alto

Palo, where Stanford is located, to downtown San Francisco, and the speed of the train is also relatively slow. Caltrain is charged by interval, so you can use Caltrain bus card to pay for it. After you get on the bus, there will be a flight attendant to check the ticket. If you are caught evading the ticket, there will be no fine, but you will make up the ticket, but this kind of thing will happen. By the way, American trains seem to be double-decked, spacious and clean. The two-story train seems to be quite interesting. Friends who want to know can go to the United States to try it, but the price is a little expensive, so it is better to live by themselves.

In fact, there are still many modes of transportation in the United States. The next article in Xiaobian will tell you about the intercity transportation in the United States, which is the mode of transportation that is more cost-effective than the train. Friends can learn about it, and it may be very practical.
