Why don't you use local buses/trains in your area ?

I always use the bus as I haven't had the opportunity to learn to drive yet. My and my wife are in the same situation, as are several colleagues at work. Often I hear people say that the public transport in their area is rubbish but don't get much more context. If you don't use them, why is that ? If you stopped using them why ?
