Finally, a Commercial for Buses that Delivers

Go Transit's ad employs all the well-worn cliches from car commercials in favor of the humble, lovable bus.
Finally, a Commercial for Buses that Delivers

The humble bus: so useful, so efficient, so under hyped.

But Go Transit, which serves metro Toronto, has done us all a service by creating a humorous homage to this urban transportation juggernaut in the same high-drama style of cliched car commercials.

“It’s like the self-driving car has arrived already and we saved you a seat.”

The ad is winning fan across the internet. It is a fan favorite on Reddit and Youtube, where it has about 750,000 views.
