wouldn't you just take a taxi/uber in such an emergency situation?

Also, buses don't exist in a vacuum, and PT can easily be faster than cars. Think of metros in the city, dedicated bus lanes on congested roads, and bicycle paths to stations and stops

No, I meant to ask

Why would someone take a bus in such a critical scenario instead of a taxi or an uber?

Anyway, I think it's impossible to argue PT with someone that seems to have grown up in a car centric society, so I'll just give up.
