How come? I love the streetcar.
If you're talking about having to stop when it stops, well ... just do it or go to jail.

If you're talking about having to stop when it stops, well ... just do it or go to jail.
Archaic single point switches, slow service, no transit priority, poor station quality, poor station spacing. It's a long list.
No transit signal priority and usually not even right of way, comically outdated equipment (including switches and the actual attachments to the power line), awkwardly unlevel crossing, accessibility ramps that take excruciatingly long to deploy, poorly designed stops, poorly positioned stops, I could probably go on.

The opposite (I don't drive). I'm talking about it having to stop because of cars stopping.
