But will it be worse than taking public transportation?
In my experience Public transportation sucks. It's fine for getting around locally, but is terrible for commuting.
For a short 3 month period I found uberpool to be far superior to taking a train. Some days it cost a dollar more. Some days it cost less. The travel time was pretty much equivalent plus it was more comfortable.
I hate driving in rush hour traffic but as a passenger I didn't mind.
You are probably judging public transportation from an American point of view. The vast majority of public transport systems in the US are greatly under-developed compared to what is done elsewhere. A small European city such as Toulouse has orders of magnitude better public transport than Los Angeles or San Francisco for example.
