1) the costs

2) duration to get from A to B

3) feeling of freedom (walking gives you high feeling of freedom; metro gives you low)

4) Wating time

5) destination. When i am going out, i take the public transport, because i don't like drunk drivers. A drunk driver killed my tree once. I planted a tree , and a drunk driver (I assume) ran it over!

6) distance to get from A to B

7) number of transits (if aplicable)

8) reliability of the choice of transport (is the train delayed often?)

9) familiarity of the travel area. I usually take the public transport to go to unfamiliar places, because I can't navigate and drive at the same time

10) fitness, if i feel tired, i never drive.
