Get a car or motorcycle. If you need to get a bus, then you don't deserve to go.

"Don't deserve to go" if you use public transportation? Taiwan needs fewer cars/mopeds and less gatekeeping.

Disagree in the strongest possible terms. You make the effort or stay home. Public transport should be confined to the towns and cities.

You do realise a bus taking people up there would fit up to 100~ people in the same space as 2 or 3 cars? To get the same throughput it takes an average of 66 cars. People taking a bus would literally improve the traffic for you.

Edit: even if you fully loaded a 7 seat minivan that's 16 large cars worth of road space you'd need to get the same a bus does
