Is the experience actually okay?

Is it frustrating trying to keep with the schedule?
I take public transportation on an infrequent basis (no routes to where my regular job is).
I think it depends on the area and the time of day. In this area for the morning and afternoon rush hour, it is commuter traffic comprised of well dress business professional for the most part. There are also tons of tourists especially after the Washington's birthday holiday weekend through September. Occasionally, there are folks who are not as well dressed.
I've never had a problem with the public transportation in this area. It is relatively clean and efficient.
You could try it out and see how you like it. If it doesn't work out, you could always go back to driving.
