Asking questions on a flyer

Hi,

if you were asking a rather general, rhetorical type question on a flyer, would you use the infinitive or usted indicative?

For example. the title of the flyer is "Do you ride the bus?"

Would it just be "viaja en autobus?"

"do you have ideas to make it better?" = "tenga ideas para mejorarlo?"

idk why this is sounding awkward, let me know if I'm missing something?

Not entirely sure where to put that info? I went to my profile and only saw info about bages and points etc. - zibbzy, Jun 15, 2016
Look on the left hand side. You will see the words "English" ane "Spanish" Set your "I beam" there. I think that after that some more things will pop up like gender and more. - Daniela2041, Jun 15, 2016

When asking questions, just use the present indicative.

¿Viaja en autobús? needs the question marks and accent mark.

"Tenga" is present subjunctive. Use "Tiene" plus the proper capitalization and so forth.

Please do not use "text talk" on this site such as "idk" . We have people who are learning English on this site and they get confused by this kind of thing. Please use proper grammar, capitalization and spelling.

Thank you.

When we use infinitive in this case is on announcements, flyer´s, etc. that are usually in negative imperative, ie: No fumar aquí, No usar celular en el cine, etc.
