No it is not, but if it was, that is one big horde of zombies.
These are pictures taken during the rush hour in various train stations (MRT as we call them here in Manila). Certainly not for the weak of heart. Since the rising gas prices because of you know who, public transportation has been limited and those who own cars have limited their use of it. So everyone plus his father, mother, brother, and sister are taking the trains.
Such is the sad plight of the riding public here in the Philippines.
How's the transportation in your country?

Transportation in America is doing well in terms of travel on the roads.

The riding public and even those with cars are using public transport to save on gas costs as prices are just jumping back and forth making it impractical to use your vehicle to get around. Our train service could have help but it seems that we need more since commuters are really getting bigger than the trains can accommodate.

@allen0187 True, traveling around Singapore is impressive thanks to their efficient train system. You can easily get around the island, transferring from one train to another with ease. The interconnectivity is both cost-effective and highly convenient. From the airport to anywhere in the city, you’ll never get lost—just follow the color-coded lines and you’ll reach your destination in no time. That’s why owning a car isn’t really necessary there, reducing traffic congestion since buses and trains can easily take you wherever you need to go.

Public transportation isn't for everyone.

@Ineeddentures motorcycles are prevalent here in the country but the drivers are mostly undisciplined.
They cause traffic as well.

Unless they are in or close to cities most people here use their personal vehicles.

That really looks like a very crowded situation for traveling there. Gas prices are high here and we're pretty much stuck dealing with it. Where i live we rely on our personal vehicles and try not to make unnecessary trips. No more driving for leisure.

Back in the day, road trips were a thing.
I don't such is the case now.
