google transit

Why do online maps assume we are driving? Google is starting to get the bigger picture, now incorporating directions to public transport in Google Maps for some cities. For places like Seattle you can click on a bus stop icon to get line and schedule information, but don't hold your breath waiting to see Cape Town's bus or taxi stops. If you can't get the information at the bus stop, you sure as hell won't find it online.
