Well, I think a personal car is the most convenient mode of transportation. When you use your own car, you can go anywhere at any time you want. You don't need to wait for the public bus, the subway, or the train. And also, when you're driving your car, you can go straight to your destination. On the other hand, when you use the train or subway, you can only get to the station, and then you have to use another mode of transportation to reach your final destination. So that's why I think a personal car is the most convenient option.
