Pfft, here, you either get on a bus or train. Or tram. Or walk.

In the UK we have a lot of engineering works always going on with the rail network, so you often have to be stopped at a station and taken part of the way by bus, before getting back on a train for the rest of the journey.
Or people live too far to walk to the train station.
And in general our public transport isn't that great in the UK. It's normally good if you live in a city or large town, but go outside into the rural areas and you have very limited services. For example where I grew up in the New Forest (Hampshire) we had one bus per hour running from 8am till 6pm. Before or after those hours you couldn't get public transport anywhere and so if you didn't have a car you needed to either walk, cycle or book a taxi. And the nearest town being 5 miles away.
That was a nightmare when I was growing up. If I wanted to meet friends in Southampton I would either have to go home around 6pm which wasn't good, or try to arrange transport with parents or if we were lucky a friend who could drive.

That is the state of public transport in the UK. It has been for many years now and everyone is always moaning about it.

(Warning. Beginning of rant)
Years of neglect and then privatisation destroyed the british public transport system. It now costs the taxpayer more to run rural public transport than it did when the government ran the public transport and only a few companies get the subsidised routes due to backhanders.
(All clear. Rant over.)

Partly due to the hub and spoke nature of the transport system (as H said, in cities it's fine, but out in the sticks it's bad). And whoever mentioned privatisation and destroying the services - damn straight. It's made a real mess of things. See also post office.
