…but a solid F for practicality and safety. At least where my commute is concerned.
According to Google Transit, the best way for me to get from my apartment to North Seattle Community College involves grabbing a bus from the closest bus stop to the transit center just south of the Northgate Mall. So far, so good.
Unfortunately, after that, I need to walk a block, scale a chain-link fence, climb a hill, play Frogger across three lanes of northbound traffic, one express lane, and three lanes of southbound traffic on I-5, go down a hill, scale another chain link fence, hike through some woods, and swim across the lake on the NSCC grounds. Oh, and according to their estimates, it should take me nine minutes to do all this.
I think that I’ll stick to the Seattle Metro Trip Planner for now. ;)
(Yes, I’m sure Google does much better in many circumstances. This one just gave me a good laugh.)
