I don't think we have a point A and point B in Los Angeles.
I think I remember riding a bus once several decades ago, but I can't be sure.
By the time I walked to the bus stop and waited for the next bus, I could drive into downtown LA. That is if I wanted to go there.
By far, the best transportation system for LA is the automobile. Why this is so requires some thought, but thinking seems to be in short supply these days.
I seem to recall having read somewhere that in the 1930s General Motors bought the LA public transit system for the sole purpose of destroying it so that the automobile would be the way to go. (I read that before I realized the importance of the audit trail, so I don't have the source.)
Might I also ask whether the Moscow subway system was built under the saintly Czars or under The Evil Empire???? 1995 was already the period of free-fall capitalism in the breakdown-products of the former USSR, I believe.
