A solution that could resolve the evening rush-hour problem would be
shared-cabs (find others going to the same location). Could benefit
everyone - lower fares for the passengers, higher fares for the driver
and more cabs available

I take cabs precisely because I do not want to share my space with anyone
else,many single women would feel unsafe sharing,if I want to share I will
take the bus "thank you"

Wouldn't that make you feel safer? It's true the drivers are now
checked by the Public Carriage Office so as long as you use a licensed
cab you are far more likely to be safe. And sharing would be an option,
it wouldn't be forced on you. But the more other people in the car, the
safer you are surely likely to be? If you did end up sharing with just
one other passenger who happened to be male, there is always the option
that one of you sits in the front (probably the male).

The main danger of the bus is the walk from the bus stop to home?
