在国外旅行免不了要乘坐公交车，其乘坐方式与国内的会有所不同。如果你对此一无所知，就会给你的出行带来很多麻烦。下面我们就详细介绍一下如何在美国乘坐公交车出行。
美国的公交车都很准时，但公交站有些少，有时需要走很远才能找到公交站牌，上车的时候一定要排队。车票是均价，刷公交卡或投币都可以；如果中途需要转车，向司机索取换乘票即可。有的城市坐车、等车的人并不多，所以车不是在每一站都会停靠。如需下车，在前一站拉车窗上方或旁边的黄色拉绳，这样司机就会知道有人要在下一站下车了。车上会提供一些报纸杂志，乘客可以在乘坐的途中打发时间；在车上不准吃东西，否则会被罚款；下车的时候，不一定非要在后门下车，前门也可以。
