While I am a full-time student, I really like to use public transportation when going to university. Public transport is a very easy option for us because it offers low fares. As a student, I benefit from reduced fares since I go to university daily and hold a student identity card. For me, using public transportation is very convenient, and it takes less time to reach my university, allowing me to be attentive and ready to attend my classes.
