We DO have good transit. Just not as good as we need and want, or as good as the rhetoric of our politicians tries to convince us we have. San Francisco in particular has a legal "transit first policy" and yet transit is not supported or given priority in so many ways that it could be (e.g. as simple a thing as why are commercial trucks allowed to double park blocking bus routes?). But its still better than all but a couple of other US cities making SF one of the few cities in the US where it's very feasible to live car-free (I do it and many of my friends do it).
