Why do we say "going on the train", "going on the bus" but we go "in" the car?
To say “going on the car” sounds utterly ridiculous of course but the question is inspired by someone I know who says just that, it would seem her whole family says that. We might go on the back of a truck, yes, but why why do we do we not go on the car? Is there a grammatical rule that applies here?
