    To ride from one transit carrier to another, we recommend loading Stored Value. TAP cards loaded with Stored Value can be used on any of the systems below. Make sure to TAP your card each time you board and the correct fare amount for each transit carrier will be automatically deducted from the Stored Value loaded on your TAP card. Loading a Metro Pass is only valid on Metro bus and rail.

    LA public transport has never looked so good. So very well shot. Although I still feel LA trains and buses go nowhere and are highly impractical. Or may not be so only if you live super close to your work. Anyway... great video. Subscribing for sure 🙂👍

      Quickest option is Uber/Lyft. If that’s not an option - Combo Redline to Hollywood/Highland exit, then a short bus ride (or walk towards in and out on sunset) and order an Uber from there (saves big then Ordering Uber from Tourist area)

      There are screens and audio announcements. Each station also has a large sign, so you can compare the station name to where you want to go on the map posted in each cabin to know how many stops away you are.

    • @JorgeLopezMedia
      @JorgeLopezMedia  2 года назад +2

      Because Inglewood is a bit far off from Hollywood (relatively) if time is an issue take Lyft (usually a bit cheaper than Uber) but if you want to not pay that much, take the metro 🚇 right now it’s still free here. But from Inglewood those lines can be a bit “messy”

    bus drivers dont give out transfers anymore! instead if your transfering between metro buses and trains except the silver line u get unlimited free transfers for 2 hours as long as your going one way. if your transferring from metro to another agency their is a 50 cent up charge and if your transferring from metro to silver line their is a 75 cent up charge. these do not include express buses like the santa clarita commuter express busses from north hollywood to santa clarita

      @JorgeLopezMedia  5 лет назад +1

    I'm a new Yorker live in my moms home town in Goldsboro NC but we had recently we had public buses but I do walk alot to get to Wayne comm. college. I really love to walk down to the highway to get to school by foot but I usually take the bus to take me anywhere.e, but I really need a car license because I be moving to cali for doing flimmaking and doing recording technicians. Yes sometimes I walk I don't need much of a car to drive from LACC( Vermont st.)to my new apartment in main street. But I care for taking a shuttle subways. I was wayvh other first ye in l.a. one black guy said don't take buses they get too hasty and complicated. I rather take the bus, but not when I take out my money when I go to the bank, I can get rob faster.i hear that people wears disguises just to get you gipped on it. I try to get the shuttle at the subway to vine street or hollywood.i will think this is new York, I'm from there. So thank you.

    On time my ass. The train eta's are always changing and many times you have no idea of when to expect them to.arrive. And be prepared to just keep your head down and try not to make eye contact with some of the crazies that frequently ride the Metro Be especially careful when riding the Red, Purple and Blue lines. Also be very aware of your surroundings at night at places like Unon Station or any stops on the lines I mentioned above. There are a lot of unsavory people around and security is mostly non-existent.

      I have been to the city countless times and stood there for weeks, and never once drove. Although the options are limited now, public transit has gotten better and to this day, they are continuing to expand the train system and build more stations. The only idiots that ASSUME that you cant get around LA without a car are those that dont, or rarely take public transit
