Public transit where I grew up was terrible, but my parents rarely drove me places. I used to bike 2 miles to get to my best friend's house and then maybe we'd bike another mile to go to the movies.
Not everywhere has awful public transit, though. When I moved to Boston for college, the fact that I could *go places* was a revelation.
