I love public transportation because it really helps people like me who don't own, and/or want, a car! i encourage you to take public transit or alternative methods of transportation as often as you can so that we can be kind to our precious earth and keep green!

happy riding! :)

Thank you for this! I think walking is a legit viable mode of transportation to put on the list. In my opinion, a city isn't a city if its not walkable.

Outdoor Escalators and the Tunnels are really useful ones downtown like the one connecting the major buildings for a food court. Used to have to go from the pier to a friend's near St. James only had to walk uphill for 3 blocks to cross the highway.

Sometime after this video was made, the ORCA card became free for youths under 18. I don't think that applies to visitors, but if you live/move here, definitely grab your free ORCA card. Also, the ORCA card is the only way to transfer between modes (light rail to bus to streetcar, for example) and not have to pay full fare each time. You pay on the first mode, then can travel freely for two hours on any mode (not ferries)... you'll only pay the difference in fare, paying the highest mode fare... which I think is the bus, still at $2.75. So if you ride the lightrail for a distance that costs $2.25 (lightrail right now is based on distance), then board a bus, you'll have to pay the 50 cent difference. Of course, if you have a transit pass on your ORCA card, it's just covered.

Seattle is a great city to live car-free in! I've been here nearly 7 years without one.
