You got what you (will) pay for

Public transport transports you, say, a bus;
private means you conveniently port--
difference being whisked away with no fuss,
versus sending self via umbilical pre-sort.
Where one makes room for possibilities,
(although the case could be another way)
the other gives predictablities.
Neither/none's preferable, who can say?
Except passenger intent and fare charged.
Although hidden forces often us move,
where we would go may only be revealed
in fullness' end--we hope the way is smooth.
Appearances not to the contrary,
we all arrive else, and pay plus unwary.
