Curitiba, Brazil: Advantages vs. Disadvantages

Pro: Curitiba's rapid-transit buses can move 36,000 passengers an hour, a cheap alternative to a subway system. Bus run on dedicated lanes along five arterial roads in the city.

Con: Many Curitibanos view public transport as noisy, crowded and unsafe. Because cars are status symbols, attempts to discourage people from buying them are probably futile.
