Ohhh please don't do that! please... we SOOOO need your rides.. the whole slug-line system will fail if Miss FL decides she is just going to stop doing us the favor to drive us.
Just by reading how aggressive and rude you are... by the way you communicate.. my Goodness.. what is the matter with you!

So if you don't want to ride with me that is fine...just trying to get to work like everyone else. So I will no longer pick up on Rt 17...thanks to the couple of folks that were nice to me during my travels North.

As far as the newbie thing goes, I certainly qualify. But why would I wanna add posts to the soap opera here? So I can get criticized for it? Sorry I haven't been slugging for 10 years yet. I guess after then I'll have some credibility in this "community"

What a great posting! Just started slugging three months ago and have not a really bad experience....just a few interesting ones. BTW, does anyone know the story of the lady with the canoe on top of her Sienna? She picks up at Tacketts Mills and drops at the Pentagon; reverse in the PM. Just different with the canoe but a nice quiet lady.

AZMan, in the rain, heeled shoes, snow, cold, late or while pregnant, 50 steps is a lot.

NoNo, yes, but it still beats walking from your car in the parking lot if/when you drove/drive :) If it's bad weather conditions, I take that into consideration when driving (common sense), however, on a normal day it's a viable option and a good compromise for driver/SLUG. I love parking in Corridor 2 right now and going through the METRO entrance but I know once Corridor 2 entrance opens back up, those rows are going to be PACKED again so Corridor 3 is the best option, even at 0530! So, SLUGs will be dropped off beside Corridor 2 before you get to the steps facing the SLUG lines unless their's bad weather where then I'm just staying home [8D]

Only if you are so fat that you get winded from just getting up to go to the bathroom.

I hear what your saying "NoNo" but my thoughts are the difference is only a few steps, maybe 50 steps if I had to count them as the difference so dropping off at the side of Corridor 2 versus the SLUG line pick-up point doesn't make a whole lot of difference. Now, if my driver said Corridor 3 and not offer Corridor 2 THEN I'd be a little upset as that adds quite a bit to the METRO walk. Even with Corridor 2 being "closed" the drop off point is still a good, safe area to drop off SLUGs and still not have a long walk to the METRO and a quick drive to the parking lot by Corridor 3.
