How do you travel locally?

Im really curious how everyone can get transport, for themselves and their family on the daily. I have low vision and cant drive, but i can currently take public transport. Are there any options available for low vision transport that are readily available and cost-effective (assuming you use it everday) when you have children, cant drive and havent got a significant other to drive you around?

If theres another forum you know of, please tell me. 

Thanks
