Drive-by downvoters: at least post a reply and explain which part of this you disagree with...
The larger problem is that Muni's quality of service is terrible on all of its routes. The buses are usually filthy, late, slow, vastly overcrowded, falling apart, and frequently contain dangerous and/or insane people.
If the bus system were better on any routes, there would be proportionately less need for private mass transportation.
Combine this with Muni's seeming inability to run enough trains and buses on high-demand routes, and inability to even operate what would be very profitable routes on high-demand corridors such as the Marina to downtown, and we have our situation today.
