Hey guys. I’m afraid there are some SERIOUS differences between urban and rural Germany… especially with regard to availability of public transportation. It is briefly mentioned in the DW video, but… you really can’t over-emphasize the difference between a subway train within walking distance every five minutes (city) vs. four buses per day, none of them going to a supermarket or grocery store or to your workplace - because the buses are only serving as a school bus service - and none operating on the weekends (rural village).
At the mooment, we have the 49 €Ticket or Deutschland Ticket. For 49 € per month, you have a digital Ticket and can drive all across the country with regional trains and busses etc. There are some rules about it but I think it´s a very good thing
a smart guy said once: "a rich country is not a country where the poor are able to ride their own car, a rich country is where the rich are taking public transport" - it means, that you have to make the public option so good, that nobody need a car - in many countries this is true for cities, but extremely rare for rural areas - Germany is no exception
yep, but only idiots believe such obvious ideologic bullshit. its just anti car propaganda. the reality is that one need in general a good transport system with all kind of options (this is where for instance the Netherlands fail partly - apropos: no one talks about the higher accidents due to bikes/pedestrian mixing. i bet you even never thought and investigated about that. you have no idea what else you dont know). back to the topic: the traffic has to have as much good options as possible AND has to fit to the structures. comparisons with smaller cities like Muenster, Aachen or Freiburg or bigger cities with small structures like Amsterdam to big cities like Berlin, NY or Moskau are for instance pointless. Berlin has the best structure btw, because it separates thanks to old-modern Prussian urban planning big space for pedestrian AND cafe seats etc. AND separate bike lanes AND alley/trees (not just for boulevards!) AND parking AND street for cars (important is here the transition to E-Cars) AND in many cases a separate Tram (or elevated S-Bahn/U-Bahn). thats the BEST infrastructure for big cities. cities like London and Paris (not even to talk about Rome and some other cities) have certain problems, because they have often still in many parts an outdated old city structure (streets too narrow and often without alleys of trees). in earlier times back then this meant that one has to destroy houses (like it was done for boulevards) and rebuild it to a more modern structure. not likely to happen which means such 'odd' build cities have to deal with that partly like in Amsterdam, partly like in Berlin. in general important (but not due to this left wing rich/poor bla bla) is in general a good backbone framework for s-/u-bahn trains/metro (best with one or two 'ring systems' like in Berlin (many big cities also lack on that)) to transfer huge masses of people fast around. same is required for cars. and for the finer local transport its good re refill the rest with certain metro lines and trams (if not possible then busses or fairs - depending on the city). And a city has to CONTINUE to grow with urban new destricts (something almost all cities in Europe and the US totally fail. for Germany that means we neeed NEW Kreuzbergs/Prenzlbergs and so on - new REAL districts. same for all the other cities (combined with skyscrapers here and there to further raise the density. this combination is the most dense yet nicest). do you have the impression that anyone is doing that? no, instead space is wasted for 'commieblock' like dead seperated buildings which are neither urban nor green (thats not real green around that, thats dead zones - and potential crime infested structures, also because without the potential of shops/cafes/little offices in the ground floor integration (fast creating jobs and services) is basically not possible). THIS is one of the major problems with city planning at the moment. the problems with the Deutsche Bahn btw. (only true for the national and international trains btw.) has the same roots: over the time the structures/laws/ability to act became more and more limited and also costly which led to something which everyone who is smart should immediately recognize as alarming, because if one with modern technologies and know how cannot build anymore every kind of stuff and FASTER then something is wrong - and the civilization level became 'LOWER in this area. also something most are not aware at all. in other fields you have not the same problem: computer are getting faster for instance (not slower!)
Good morning ya'll, public Transportation in Germany isn't free, you have to buy a ticket. Their are Ticket Machines outside of the trainstation or inside the subway station, where you can purchase a ticket, or you can buy a ticket online and have it sent to your phone.On the bus you can buy a ticket from the driver. If you get caught without a ticket, you have to pay a 60€ fine. Greetings from Stuttgart Germany
Sounds more like you've never used public transport, since they should exists all over germany. Sure if you use a subscribtion you don't use them. For single-trip tickets it depends, some regions have valid for x min after brought others have valid for x mins after stamping. For multi-trip tickets every region uses the stamping system.

background music is too loud
Thanks for showing.
If that's mindblowing already, have a look at public transport in Paris or the trains of switzerland and Japan 😉 much better than in Germany
Unfortunately, the trains are usually always late. That's not great.
I rember, that it was much better in the past. Please send your love letters to 32 years of conservativ rulin' , since October 1st 1982...
She's explaining a particular region, this is just not valid for all of Germany. I've never seen "ticket stamping machines" at all.
Sounds more like you've never used public transport, since they should exists all over germany.
Sure if you use a subscribtion you don't use them.
For single-trip tickets it depends, some regions have valid for x min after brought others have valid for x mins after stamping.
For multi-trip tickets every region uses the stamping system.
Visit Essen in the Ruhrgebiet and you will be overwhelmed by stamping machines in every tram or public bus 😉
You cut off the ENGLISH SUBTITLES, that YOU read to understand the other video. ENGLISH viewers can NOT FOLLOW your reaction.
How you messed up with the background music ? Sounds like 4 different songs mixed together. Horrible. Had to stop watching...
1:20 ONLY in (some) cities
