TAR15 EP10: "We’re Not Working With Anybody, Ever, Anymore!"
Neobie:
Got it. They missed their stop and got off at the Masarykovo Nadrazi Train Station instead. Tunnel's the Letensky Tunnel.
Shouldn't have been any traffic before that; Brian and Ericka could have proven the bus choice a wise one if they'd got off at the right stop!
TPTB failed to show us the determining factor of their loss this week.

Not exactly sure what I'm looking for Slowhatch :-[ :lol: :duno:
Slowhatch:
Neobie put it all together. It would have been nice to find a frame like this, but I didn't see anything this time.
There aren't many instances I can think of where it's better to take public transport:
* When the teams are instructed by clue card
* It's early in the race, they're more interested in saving money than time (TAR4, airport into Milan)
* Public transport is just as fast (TAR4, airport into Brisbane)
* All the other teams are doing it because it's the only practical solution (TAR3, airport into K.L.)That's off the top of my head, there are probably other examples. But....final 4? I'd stay away from public transport unless the time savings were locked in--guaranteed.
Neobie:
Which is why teams should receive less cash, or receive less cash they're allowed to use for taxis.
Public transport always seems to work faster in Hong Kong though - is traffic that bad? In TAR 2 from the airport, in TAR:A across the harbour, in TAR:I to Causeway Bay... TAR 11 forced them to use taxis though, I'm sure the subway would've been faster either way!
